Netop Secures Position as Top Provider of Unified Communications Solutions With Netop Live
With the addition of the Netop Live family of unified communications products, Netop is setting the standard for secure, live internal and external communications.
Copenhagen - September 25, 2008 - Today Netop launched its new family of unified communications products, Netop Live. Netop Live became a part of the Netop family of software solutions with the company's June 2008 acquisition of Medianet Innovation's, sales organization and development division and the execution of a worldwide exclusive contract with Medianet.
With this strong foothold in the unified communications solutions market, Netop expands its focus on providing companies with software designed for managing and communicating remotely and securely.
Netop Live software products were developed for today's companies and organizations that understand the value of unified communications. These industry-leaders know that providing a work environment where talk, chat, video, data, documents, email and calendars are integrated, secure and easy-to-use makes their employees more efficient and effective and allow them to better serve their customers. Netop Live is the technology platform that makes that vision a reality by providing companies with a solution for fast and personal contact, among co-workers as well as with customers and business partners - anytime anywhere.
"Using unified communication internally is already the standard for the majority of today's businesses. However, many face the challenge of using the technology externally without compromising security. With Netop Live, companies improve the quality of their external communications, while saving time and money. Netop Live solutions allow businesses to combine external and internal communication in a secure, remote control environment," said Kurt Bager, CEO, Netop.
The personal Internet
Netop Live solutions offer businesses and organizations new and innovative ways to communicate personally with their customers and employees over the Internet. For example, when customers are booking airline tickets online and have trouble finding schedule information with one simple click, they can connect directly and personally with an airline reservations agent who is available to help them. This eliminates waiting on hold on the telephone, choosing from endless options on a voice mail system or sending emails that aren't answered until the next day - or even later.
Netop Live is also a great solution for internal unified communications. With many employees working virtually today, employees, such as sales consultants, can have immediate access to product specialists, saving time and frustration as they call around an office trying to find the right person to answer their questions. Netop Live products are the only solution available today that offer this high level of integration between external and internal communications systems.
Document sharing
Health care is another industry where unified communications can enhance the quality of service provided to customers while ensuring the high level of confidentiality and security required by federal law. With one click, physicians can have conferences with their colleagues at other medical centers around the world, collaborating on a plan of care for their patients or on a difficult diagnosis. Or they can work together on a research paper or other document directly on their computer monitors - regardless of where they are.
Netop Live security encryption is certified by Deloitte. The tools in the products can be logged and encrypted so the company can instantly trace any transaction.
Unified communications: A growing market
"Customer demand for secure unified communication is growing tremendously and is by far the fastest growing segment in the remote operation market. By combining our expertise and experience in remote control solutions with the innovative unified communications capabilities of Netop Live, we are securing Netop's position as a leader in this market," said CEO Kurt Bager.
"We are taking Medianet's best solutions and consolidating, simplifying and streamlining the underlying technology so we can offer our customers one easy-to-use solution for using the Internet for internal and external communications. In the future, we plan to make Netop solutions available as pay-by-the-minute services, extending the availability of its enhanced communications capabilities to even more customers around the world," concluded Bager.
