Andi-Co chooses Digium for clearer communications

Announcement posted by Wavelink 11 May 2010

Large whitegoods distributor Andi-Co has chosen Digium Inc’s Switchvox business phone system to support its unified communications needs.

Digium Switchvox is a feature-rich, cost-effective Internet protocol (IP) private branch exchange (PBX) designed for small- to mid-sized businesses (SMBs).

Switchvox‘s unique web-aware capabilities enable integration with web and back-office applications, turning the phone system into a powerful unified communications (UC) platform.

Elbert Van Bommel, IT manager, Andi-Co, says that the Digium solution was selected over other major vendors based on its ease of deployment, integration capabilities and competitive cost.

“It is important for all employees to be able to communicate clearly with each other regardless of their location to ensure an efficient inventory and client management process. With the Digium Switchvox, all of our 40 employees are fully connected, wherever they may be.”

Ilan Rubin, director, Wavelink Communications, said, “Andi-Co needed a platform that was able to provide an IP-based seamless connection.

“Digium Switchvox is the perfect solution for Andi-Co. Switchvox is designed for businesses that want a full-featured voice over IP phone system for hundreds of employees per server at a fraction of the cost of traditional PBXs.”
