VSGi Launches VoiceWorks™; Its New Business Voice Service

Business Quality Voice Service Provides Superior Features with Greater Savings vs. Traditional Phone Services

MCLEAN, VA – December 22, 2008 – Visual Systems Group, Inc. (VSGi), a nationally recognized premier integrator of video, voice, web, data collaboration, and communications solutions, today announced the commercial availability of VoiceWorks™, a new enterprise class voice service. Built on the industry’s leading Voice over IP platform, VoiceWorks provides customers the widest array of features and applications available in the marketplace today. VoiceWorks provides a feature set that far surpasses costly premise-based PBX systems and provides customers with a cost-effective scalable alternative with built-in redundancy.

”VoiceWorks™ gives our customers capabilities—like the easy integration of voicemail and email—that cause them to tell us: ‘How did we work without it,’” said Donald K. Jones, CEO of VSGi.  “The cost savings and productivity improvements offered by VoiceWorks™ are improving organizations’ bottom-line – small businesses and large corporations alike.”

Organizations can realize savings versus traditional phone systems in several ways such as office-to-office calling globally free of charge, operating voice services over existing Internet connections thus eliminating the need to purchase separate telephone lines or trunk lines to carry voice calls. Finally, organizations avoid the capital expense of purchasing and maintaining old and costly premise-based PBX systems.

VSGi configures, installs, and supports the VoiceWorks™ service to provide an end-to-end Quality-of-Service (QoS) solution. VSGi offers a “no capital costs” plan by providing customers with a variety of award-winning Polycom IP phones and VoIP QoS Internet connections. The company offers VoiceWorks™ and Polycom® SoundPoint® and SoundStation® phones, including those with Polycom’s HD Voice™ technology in three flexible service plans: Basic, Standard and Premium. VoiceWorks™ serves the needs of all voice applications and users, from conference and lobby phones to executives and desktop or remote users as well as call centers with from five to five hundred personnel.

“Polycom is delighted to team with VSGi for high-quality, reliable VoIP offerings” said Tim Yankey, Polycom Director of Product Marketing.  “Polycom’s SoundPoint IP phones combined with VSGi’s new voice service offerings equip our customers with best-in-class collaboration and communication solutions.”

VoiceWorks™ is appropriate for all but the smallest organizations, from those that need simple dial tone voice calling capability to those that want to use the latest productivity features capable with a full-functioned, sophisticated IP platform.
