Voxbone Helps 8x8 Implement Global Reach Initiative

BRUSSELS, Feb. 1, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Voxbone announced today that it is providing geographical and toll-free numbers to help cloud communications provider 8x8, Inc. (Nasdaq: EGHT) expand its international calling capabilities to serve larger business customers on a global scale.

The new relationship with Voxbone enables 8x8 to provide geographical and toll-free numbers for business customers with offices outside of the United States. Additionally, Voxbone services are making it easy for 8x8 to swiftly and fully integrate its recently acquired hosted contact center capabilities with its established telecommunications services.

"Our key strengths make us a valuable partner to meet 8x8's objectives," said Voxbone CEO Rod Ullens. "8x8 is seeing growing demand for global numbers, and we are addressing that need with a highly reliable, global network that also provides attractive telecom rates and open APIs for 8x8's growing base of large enterprise customers."

8x8 is using VoxDID, which provides geographical numbers to extend the international reach of its network quickly at minimal costs, as well as Vox800, which provides local toll-free phone numbers for various countries for direct inward dialing.

"As part of 8x8's 'Global Reach' initiative, we are pleased to partner with Voxbone to provide both international local and toll free DIDs to our customers," said Mehdi Salour, 8x8 Vice President of Network Operations. "Along with the adoption of our communications services by larger-sized businesses, we are seeing an increased demand to provide 8x8 services and phone numbers outside of North America, particularly where the customer requires a follow-the-sun contact center support strategy. The addition of the Voxbone portfolio of numbers in conjunction with our expansion into data centers in Europe and Asia will greatly enhance our ability to satisfy these customers."
