Agito Networks has launched a product it claims does voice
call routing on the Blackberry better thanResearch in Motion's recently introduced MVS
software.
Agito's RoamAnywhere Mobility Router is designed to help
businesses provide enterprise voice and unified communications
applications.
While Rim's MVS provides call routing via mobile phone networks,
Agito is able to use Wi-Fi for VoIP calls, which the company says
makes its product considerably cheaper to run than Rim's.
Agito said the RoamAnywhere Mobility Router supports mid-call
features for Blackberry smartphones - such as hold, conferencing,
transfer; a single enterprise number and voicemail; directory
query; and call retrieve - with automatic sub-100 millisecond
handover over between Wi-Fi and cellular networks. It also supports
international direct dialing and roaming, least-cost routing,
reverse dialing, automatic SIM swap, and dynamic calling rules, the
company said.
Agito uses client software that runs on a Wi-Fi-enabled
Blackberry smart phone together with an appliance. Agito licenses
the product at $100 to $200 per user.
