First Managed IP Communications Solution For Medium–Sized Enterprises

LOUISVILLE, Ky (February 14, 2006) — Smoothstone IP Communications, a nationwide provider of IP communications solutions, today announced the only managed solution for the medium–sized enterprise market. Using a professional services approach, a proprietary, centralized platform and an outsourced, managed services delivery model, Smoothstone provides comprehensive IP communications solutions that are specifically tailored for the mid–size enterprise and that result in a lower, overall total cost of ownership (TCO) for these organizations.

Smoothstone also provides the private, nationwide and converged network infrastructure that carries all of its IP communications. Smoothstone´s IP platform has earned the Cisco Powered Network designation, delivering local dial tone in more than 5,800 calling areas and covering 94 percent of the United States. Target customers are enterprises with 50 to 1,000 employees, multiple locations, high call volumes and WAN traffic demands.

“We believe that one size does not fit all. We built our IP platform to provide mid´sized enterprises with the same IP communications benefits that Fortune 1000 companies enjoy today, but without the need for internal resources and expertise,” said Jeff Wellemeyer, CTO and chairman of Smoothstone. “We provide “one vendor simplicity” for all data, voice and video communications services – including ongoing 24/7 technical support, connectivity and hardware sourcing. And, we do so at a cost much lower than what these organizations are typically paying for their current infrastructures or what they would pay to provide this level of features and service themselves.”
