The Grandstream IP voice & video phone portfolios provide the
best price-performance point in the industry. All of Grandstream
products are designed to support advanced voice-over-IP applications
and are interoperable with most 3rd party SIP products. The GXP
multi-line enterprise IP phone series, the BudgeTone single-line series
and the GXV3000 IP video phone offer advanced feature sets with superb
audio and video quality, provide advanced security features, support a
broad range of voice codecs, and are easy to manage through web-based
GUI interfaces or central secure provisioning files.
Sipcat VoIP software is continually recognized by industry experts for
its ease of use. The latest Sipcat version, that introduces
compatibility with the GXV3000 and GXP2020, continues this trend and
provides full integration with the Grandstream phones, requiring no
separate IP telephone configuration from the end-user or administrator.
"Thanks to Grandstream's provisioning features, we've been able to
provide a zero configuration environment for our customers. Companies
just select the Grandstream phone model from a drop down list, and
Sipcat takes care of the complete configuration", said Tom Schouteden,
Managing Director of Linugen.
"Grandstream's SIP-based phone series offers a highly competitive
price-performance benchmark in the industry. The combination of
Sipcat's software and our SIP Phones creates an attractive and easy to
use choice in the highly competitive small-to-medium world-wide
enterprise market," commented David Li, CEO of Grandstream Networks.
"We believe this combined solution offers a very competitive and
high-value package for the SMB looking for a total VoIP solution."
