PIKA provides alternative for stranded NMS customers
Here’s a message from our Product Marketing group that will be going out in the next couple of days. I draw your attention to the availability of a low density alternative platform for NMS developers looking for a change in vendors.
Last month, Dialogic announced its pending acquisition of the platform division of NMS. As Dialogic has stated that video / mobile video was a key reason for the acquisition, NMS board customers are nervously waiting to see what happens. Will Dialogic continue supporting and developing the Open Access family of boards or will they be discontinued with a forced migration to Dialogic, the very company that NMS customers purposely avoided in the first place?
PIKA is a private company that has been manufacturing telephony building blocks (boards, APIs, voice processing applications) for 21 years. Brand-name companies around the world design innovative IVR (self-service), call center, custom PC/IP PBX, fax and logging solutions powered by PIKA Technologies. http://www.pikatechnologies.com/english/view.asp?x=346
When you choose PIKA, you are choosing a partnership with a vendor who delivers:
• Reliability, both in design and in the field. We offer high- and low-level APIs, comprehensive documentation, and a strong reputation for voice quality.
• Flexibility, with a single programming interface to all technologies that enables you to bridge the worlds of TDM and IP and to run voice/fax applications either on DSP-based boards or on the host.
• Exceptional support, through free, live, dependable and expert technical support delivered worldwide.
In addition to our family of voice boards, PIKA recently introduced a low cost embedded appliance targeted for small and medium sized businesses. If you are developing a Linux based telephony application and are looking for a small, reliable computer +boards replacement, whether you are starting with an open source platform or designing your own, the WARP appliance is the ideal solution as it allows for complete customization. WARP is truly unique in this space. And, as PIKA has grown up in the voice industry, we have ensured that all telephony-critical hardware features have been accommodated for, so your customers do not have to leave much loved features such as music on hold, overhead paging, analog line/station interfaces, and power fail transfer behind.
