Partnership Key in Bringing Next-Generation Speech-Enabled Solutions to European Markets
SandCherry, Inc., a provider of multi-service broker software for applications and media resources, and Voxpilot, Ltd., the pan-European VoiceXML voice services provider, have joined forces in a Value Added Reseller (VAR) agreement for SandCherry's SoftServer platform. Through this partnership, Voxpilot will improve its ability to offer cost-effective deployment of revenue-generating enhanced speech-enabled services to mobile telecom operators.

The foundation for cost-effective application deployments, it is a flexible and scalable solution that simplifies the integration, deployment, and management of enhanced and next-generation telecom services.
"SandCherry's SoftServer platform provides a carrier-class foundation for hosting revenue-generating speech solutions for wireless service providers," noted Dr. Jon Alcantara, Voxpilot's CEO. "With the SoftServer solution we now have the ability to support and manage multiple services for different operators with specialized needs while using a shared platform that simplifies operations and lowers capex and opex costs."
"This agreement with Voxpilot further underscores SandCherry's commitment to enabling advanced voice services in the European market," said Charles Corfield, CEO of SandCherry.
