Telecom Lead America: BroadSoft, a provider of software and services for the telecom industry, has licensed TeamSpirit Voice&Video Engine Mobile and PC to provide HD-quality voice and video calls in its BroadTouch user application.
BroadTouch Business Communicator brings together voice, video, instant messaging and presence, on a single interface that spans mobile and desktop platforms, including Windows, Mac, iOS and Android.
Before the agreement with SPIRIT DSP, BroadSoft used Google’s voice engine.
BroadSoft has over 500 telecommunications service provider customers in more than 65 countries, including 20 of the top 25 service providers globally, as measured by revenue.
“We are dedicated to ensuring our global telecommunications service provider customers provide a superior communication experience to their users,” said Scott Hoffpauir, chief technology officer, BroadSoft. “We believe SPIRIT’s capabilities will help us power HD voice and video calling that will radically change the communication experience.”
“We believe SPIRIT’s global agreement with BroadSoft underscores the growing demand from telecommunications providers around the world to offer HD voice and video communications as part of their service package in an effort to retain and gain new subscribers and reduce churn to OTT players,” said Andrew Sviridenko, chairman of SPIRIT.
SPIRIT claims that its engines are real alternative to OTT VoIP-products of Google, Skype and Microsoft. SPIRIT engines give carriers a reliable way to rapidly roll-out their own-branded high quality VVoIP communications products.
