Customer Service Boost To Follow Otel Zycoo® Agreement

14th June 2016

OTEL Telecoms' new status as a ZYCOO® approved distributor means it has realtime access to direct technical support from one of the world's leading developers and manufacturers of IP (Internet Protocol) unified communications solutions.

The distributor agreement with independent telecoms provider OTEL is China-based ZYCOO's® most extensive distribution agreement concluded to date in South Africa. "Our commitment to delivering quality IP solutions worldwide means we only partner with distributors who are the best at what they do," said ZYCOO® CEO, Hongzhen Wan.

The company's flagship product that is finding growing favour with South African businesses keen to scale down IP-based voice and data costs without comprising on quality is the CooVox V2. This is a third generation IP PBX that builds on the success of ZYCOO’s previous generation CooVox V1 Series to deliver the most advanced unified communication solution in the market today. The product's focus is on organisations with as few as 5 users, right up to 200 users. It is thus an ideal and cost effective solution that the OTEL reseller channel can target at the SME market, which is where OTEL's current focus lies.

"ZYCOO's hardware range brings a host of new features and functionality to local VoIP clients such as increased concurrency of calls and major upgrades in the underlying Asterisk applications. Under pressure organisations will appreciate the fact that Zycoo offers a high-quality IP telephony solution and market-beating prices," said Rad Jankovic, OTEL CEO. Strengthened security with fail2ban technology complete an extremely compelling telephony offering for small, medium and corporate-sized firms. Zycoo also develops proprietary software such as like CooBill, CooCall and CTMS which are now available on V2.
