Voxeo Positioned in Magic Quadrant for IVR and Enterprise Voice Portals
Leading Analyst Firm Places Voxeo in "Visionaries" Quadrant in 2008 Report
Orlando, FL - February 21, 2008 -- Voxeo Corporation today announced that
Gartner, Inc., a leading research and advisory firm, has positioned Voxeo in the
Visionaries Quadrant of its Magic Quadrant for IVR Systems and Enterprise Voice
Portals, 2008 report.1 Voxeo's placement is based on its ability to execute and completeness of vision.
"We view our position in the Visionaries quadrant as further validation that
Voxeo is enabling a fundamental shift in the way companies build and deploy voice applications,"
said Jonathan Taylor, CEO of Voxeo.
"Voxeo is only in its second year of premise IVR sales and we consider
inclusion this early on in the product's life cycle to be a significant milestone."
Voxeo is at the forefront of open telephony standards, including
VoiceXML, CCXML and SIP/VoIP. The company has been offering hosted
IVR services since 1999, and in 2006 at the request of its customers,
began offering a premise product based on its successful hosted product.
Voxeo is also the first company to offer a combined hosted/premise
solution known as Voxeo Hybrid. The company delivers products using a "software as a service" (SaaS) model,
and allows anyone to try its products for free at
