ViaTalk Increases Staff by 100% in Past 2 Months

ViaTalk resists the trends in the telephony industry when it comes to customer service. While many companies have opted for the convenience and lower costs of outsourcing their customer service departments to foreign countries, ViaTalk maintains its customer call center entirely in the United States.

The customer call center is located in ViaTalk’s headquarters in the upstate New York suburb of Clifton Park. Just about 15 miles north of Albany, ViaTalk is located in the heart of New York’s Tech Valley. CEO Brendan Brader has been recognized as one of the most influential business leaders in the region’s technological endeavors and he credits ViaTalk’s continued commitment to customer service as the foundation for his company’s success.

Vonage to Appeal Court Decision in Sprint Patent Suit

vonage_logo.gifVonage announced that it will seek to overturn today's U.S. District Court jury verdict in a patent infringement lawsuit brought by Sprint Communications Company L.P. and continue focusing on providing reliable, quality digital phone service.

Federal court jurors in Kansas City, Kansas ruled in favor of Sprint, finding that Vonage had willfully infringed Sprint's patents in providing its VoIP telephony services, and awarding $69.5 million in damages, which the jury found to be five percent of Vonage's revenues over the infringing period. Vonage will ask the court to set aside the verdict, and if it is not granted, will vigorously pursue an appeal of the decision, including the underlying issue of liability and the willfulness aspect. Vonage believes any damages awarded are inappropriate. In addition, we will seek to develop technological workarounds that don't infringe on Sprint's patents.
