Konftel to Make Conference Phones for German snom
By Prne, Gaea News NetworkMonday, March 16, 2009
UMEA, Sweden - Konftel AB, Europe’s leading conference phones manufacturer, announced
today that it will start delivering IP conference phones to the German
company snom technology AG.
“This order has a certain prestige - snom is a market leader in IP
telephony,” comments Peter Renkel, CEO at Konftel.
On the CeBIT Show a week ago, snom launched its snom MeetingPoint - a
SIP-based conference phone as the first result of the partnership which began
in July 2008.
VoIP phones from snom are recognised for their generous range
of peripheral applications that make business communication easier. The
technical solution adopted in the phones enables a wide area of use while
their flexibility makes it possible to integrate them in virtually all
SIP-based environments.
“In the moment we decided to complement our portfolio with conference
phones we looked for an optimal partner for us. Konftel stands for
innovative, high-quality products that are equipped with their world-class
OmniSound(R) audio technology, so it was clearly the first choice for a
partnership” explains Dr. Michael Knieling, Sales and Marketing Director at
snom.
The snom MeetingPoint is an excellent fusion of two experts: the
excellent audio quality developed by Konftel combined with the extraordinary
IP know how from the market leader in SIP telephony.
“The transition to IP telephony is speeding up all over the world. We
have every confidence in both our own IP telephony and our partnership with
snom. Chances are excellent that our relationship with snom will generate
more exciting assignments in the future,” says Peter Renkel who predicts vast
market potential despite the current recession.
“In times of financial crisis and climate threats, phone conferences are
a given choice for all business organisations wanting to save time and money
while preserving the environment.”
