Title: VoIPFuture Ltd. Launches European Business
 
Category: Corporate news - strategies

Go-ahead for the European market
- unique business model for Voice over IP
- VoIP voice quality visible for the first time

Hamburg, 16 January 2008  VoIPFuture Ltd. announces its plans and the product launch for 2008. Headquartered in Hamburg, VoIPFuture has its eyes firmly set on the international IT and telecommunications market and is now being launched in Europe. Target groups are carriers, broadband providers, cable network operators, ISPs and manufacturers of VoIP hardware.

The company’s core competence lies in analysing, diagnosing and monitoring VoIP voice quality. From the end of January, VoIPFuture will be launching its first products, including the VoIPFuture Library Version 1.0. The library provides an analysis of voice over IP dialog in real time and for the first time allows causes of quality problems in voice data networks to be targeted for diagnosis. The special feature of this solution is its ability to localize the causes of voice quality problems in data networks in real time and to present detailed displays of the causes.

CEO Olaf Zäncker explains the philosophy of the company: “Two issues dominate the current discussion surrounding VoIP. First off, the technology is now addressing the mass market; secondly, because of quality problems, VoIP has not yet become accepted as realistic alternative to standard telephony. As a consequence, carriers are being pressured by the high costs of dealing with the not insignificant number of customer complaints and enterprise projects are being squeezed financially because of the restrictive demands of troubleshooting during the set-up phase.  On top of this, many VoIP solution providers are lamenting the exodus of droves of customers due to the poor quality of VoIP telephony. They feel that the causes of faults in hardware, software or configuration are not being diagnosed and remedied rigorously enough. Imagine now if you will, the experience gained from analysing several Gbytes of problematic VoIP traces from all corners of the world and the knowledge of 10 years’ meticulous research. The results can be found in the products of VoIPFuture and the possibility of being able to identify all causes of errors in data networks – whether grounded in hardware, software or configuration – based on distinguishing samples. The interest shown by international carriers and ISPs are showing us that we have hit the market at the right time with the results of our research and the ensuing products. Ralf Losse, COO of VoIPFuture Ltd. adds: “Quality of service – sounds good. But VoIPFuture is looking to take the quality discussion much further. Service is undeniably important, but we have to make quality measurable.  That’s the prime driving force for companies and their customer in the future.

When it comes to Quality of Analysis (QoA) and Quality of Diagnosis (Qod), VoIPFuture’s approach already puts it ahead of the pack. The company’s goal is to set new benchmarks for voice quality in VoIP systems and to become the leading VoIP quality assessment company.
