Bell Canada unveils Global VoIP solution for business customers13 June 2005
Bell Canada, today announced an enhancement to its Global Suite of IP network services with the launch of
Global Voice over Internet Protocol. With Global VoIP, Bell Canada can now manage customers' voice and data traffic over a single, integrated IP network anywhere in the world.
"The launch of Global VoIP is another example showing that our IP strategy is gaining more and more traction in the marketplace. Canadian-based enterprises operating on an international scale can now take full advantage of
an IP world, no matter where their businesses are located," said Isabelle Courville, President Bell Canada Enterprise Group. "Global VoIP is the latest application in Bell Canada's Global IP suite and is an important component of our strategy as a world leading IP-based communications company. By leading the way to IP, Bell Canada is providing Canadian companies with a competitive business advantage."
As a fully managed service offering, Global VoIP is backed by Bell Canada's acknowledged customer care organization providing both a single point of contact and accountability for Bell's customers. The Global VoIP service will not only simplify a company's network but will streamline costs associated with voice and data. By interconnecting geographically dispersed customer locations over a "virtual private IP network", Bell Canada can
provide unlimited, international, intra-company voice services at a flat rate versus a traditional international long distance service. Companies subscribing to the G VoIP service will also benefit from reduced costs for off-net international voice communications.
Bell Canada has partnered with BT Infonet, a leading provider of global communications services, to deliver Global IP services. The suite of services, which already includes IP VPN now includes Global VoIP which is delivered by
BT Infonet's wholly owned The World Network(R).
"There is widespread recognition that IP-based networks are the best way to save money and increase roductivity," said John Hoffman, Executive Vice President of Global Sales, BT Infonet. "With this alliance, BT Infonet will help Bell Canada provide its multinational business customers with value- added IP-based solutions wherever they do business."
The initial rollout of Bell Canada's G VoIP solution will be trialled by a number of leading Canadian multinational corporations including Apotex, Canada's largest pharmaceutical company.
