ATSI and XO Agree on VoIP Network Expansion

Source: solokay.blogspot.com

XO Communications, a subsidiary of XO Holdings, Inc. has entered into an agreement with ATSI Communications, Inc. to complete the expansion of ATSI’s VoIP network.

Under the agreement, ATSI has doubled its fixed Internet bandwidth to support future growth. The company also now can increase this fixed capacity by 400 percent through the "on-demand" capabilities of XO Communications’ Ethernet services. With this expansion, ATSI has not only set the stage for continued growth during the Company’s  4th quarter of fiscal year that will begin August 1, but the company has also met the network requirements for its business plan.

While speaking on this development, the Sr. Vice President of Technology and Operations, Ruben Caraveo, they structured a very flexible arrangement with XO Communications that meets their near term needs for fixed capacity, but also allows them to increase bandwidth as needed to meet customers’ demand.

He  further stated that "As we continue our emphasis on optimizing margins, the increased network capacity is fundamental to meeting our financial objectives in FY2009."

Digerati Networks, Inc. and Telefamilia Communications are the two wholly owned subsidiaries through ATSI operates.

Digerati Networks, Inc. is a premier global VoIP carrier serving rapidly expanding markets in Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and Latin America, with an emphasis on Mexico. Through Digerati’s partnerships with established foreign carriers and network operators, interconnection and service agreements, and a NextPoint powered VoIP network, ATSI believes it has clear advantages over its competition. Telefamilia Communications provides specialized retail communication services that includes VoIP services to the high-growth Hispanic market in the United States. ATSI also owns a minority interest of a subsidiary in Mexico, ATSI Comunicaciones, S.A. de C.V., which operates under a 30-year government issued telecommunications license.

XO Holdings, Inc. is a leading nationwide provider of voice, data and IP services for businesses and carriers.

Don’t Get XO for VoIP

Source: andyabramson.blogs.com

Tonight I was having a telephone chat with long time pal Jeremy Pepper, who recently left the dark side of PR (he was with an agency) and joined the brighter side, which means he’s now on the client side of the business.

I’ve know Jeremy since he quarterbacked some of the moves Skype made when he lived in Phoenix. He was one of the first bloggers I started to follow, as his perspective on PR and Social Communications seemed very much aligned with mine.

Fast forward a few years he’s now at Boingo, a company I like to cover and he’s moved to L.A. after a stop in San Francisco. We were catching up, talking about his new gig and poof, the call dropped. I called back and a few minutes later the same think happened. Then again. So I switched from AT&T CallVantage and went with my PhoneGnome line whose long distance service runs over Junction Networks, a client of my agency. Poof. Same thing a few minutes later. Then twenty minutes more the same thing happens. HMMM.

Jeremy let me know XO is the provider. So, based on this I won’t be recommending them to any one ever again.

Got mobile?

XO Communications has launched a new service, XO Anywhere, that truly unifies communication. Any phone can be turned into a XO phone, which is an asset for companies with a mobile workforce.

“Solutions like XO Anywhere are necessary as increasing numbers of workers find themselves outside of the office,” said Steve Hilton, vice president of Yankee Group’s Enterprise Research Group. “Being able to maintain contact with customers and partners without regard to physical location will help increase worker productivity and positively impact a business’ bottom line.”

Features include click-to-dial calling and simultaneous ringing.
