IP GENIE Launched – Is is everything you wished for?
McWilliams Communications Ltd The complete VoIP Specialists July 2nd Coleraine Northern Ireland The communication revolution The telephone has been waiting for:
IPGENIE pure voice over broadband unified communications platform.
Since 2003 two brothers Sean and Paul McWilliams have been developing a new and exciting business VOIP telephony product which is built and designed in the UK , with 40 years of telecoms experience between them they have released IPGENIE a totally unlicensed unified communications platform which is set to take on the major players in the Telecoms marketplace all over the world.
VOIP (Voice over the internet protocol) is set to become a marketplace leader as businesses strive to make savings and unify there communications, one of the challenges of VOIP is the quality of the voice call a lot of VoIP providers and suppliers of IP TELEPHONY use G711 which gives a voice call quality of between 60-80K which businesses will not except in the day to day running as it gives jitter on the call. IPGENIE is set to challenge this as the call is sent out over 15k per voice call and prides itself on crystal clear communications not only that all the features and functions that are normally licensed with a product are integrated within IPGENIE and is set to save companies thousands of pounds on licensing and landline rentals of up to 60% by moving onto the new protocol SIP (Session Initiation protocol).
By using a standard broadband and an upstream of 256k IPGENIE can achieve 6 channels or lines by going over one connection this can be expanded depending on the upstream this will abolish the need for legacy ISDN 2/30 CHANNELS and so it will mean the end user will reduce their line rentals by using one analogue line and a broadband.
IPGENIE has already had success by installing various field trails across the UK and appointed various dealers in England and Northern Ireland who are also having success with the product.

Epygi Technologies Announces Their New iPhone Application, iQall
Use iQall to reduce the cost of calls and increase productivity
Epygi Technologies, Ltd., a worldwide provider of IP PBXs, gateways and conference servers supporting small businesses to enterprise’s telephony needs, unveiled iQall, which allows any user of a Quadro IP PBX to establish calls between their iPhone and any other number anywhere in the world. If the iPhone user has a GSM plan with free incoming calls, the user will not pay any charges on the plan for outgoing calls, which greatly decreases the company’s overhead expenses especially on international calls.
iQall communicates with Quadro which then initiates a call to your iPhone and your destination number, connecting both together. Also, users can call using their iPhone with this application to their co-workers in the office or customers just by dialing the extension number – the same as if they were in the office and calling from their desk phone. You can use your iPhone contacts to make speed dial calls thru your Quadro.
“The capabilities of this application will make small and medium-sized businesses and their employees more productive and available, while helping to decrease overwhelming overhead costs for these companies,” said Mario Cuello, CEO of Epygi. “This application shows our commitment to our customers to continue to create products that are functional, feature-rich and affordable.”
