VoSKY announces global channel success with six new distributors and 358 new resellers appointed worldwide in 2008, to help support and carry out plans for growth in order to capitalise on the increasing business demand for its VoSKY Exchange PBX-to- Skype application gateways.

This takes VoSKY's total of worldwide distributors to 16, and its number of VoSKY premier partners to a total of 610 worldwide. This global network of channel partners will play a key role in helping VoSKY to provide superior service and support to the global SMB and enterprise markets.

The new additions to VoSKY's portfolio reflect the value of their award- winning Skype Certified business-class PBX-to-Skype gateway solutions, which are scalable and continually developed to meet the business needs of varying sized companies to deliver value-added business applications that enhance business communication and reduce telecoms costs.

VoSKY's portfolio of analogue, digital and SIP PBX-to-Skype gateways certified by major PBX vendors like Avaya, ShoreTel and Altigen, gives VARs the opportunity to offer their customers a cost effective solution which enhances their existing PBX with Skype applications. VoSKY helps resellers differentiate from the competition and drive revenue growth.

Last year VoSKY introduced the VoSKY Exchange Pro VISIP-EX, the industry's first Skype-certified enterprise-grade PBX-to-Skype gateway for SIP networks, and the VoSKY Exchange Pro VIT1/E1, the first T1/E1 enterprise-grade PBX-to- Skype gateway to achieve Skype certification. Based on VoSKY's latest enterprise-grade Linux platform, both allow medium to large sized companies to take advantage of Internet Telephony without having to replace their existing network infrastructure.

All VoSKY resellers have demonstration equipment available and are certified to install, service and support VoSKY Exchanges. Furthermore, they are also fully trained on Skype features and services such as the Business Control Panel, SkypeOUT, SkypeIN and Skype voucher credits.
