Iformata Selects Level 3 as Primary Data Network Provider

Jan 07, 2009 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) --
Level 3 Communications announced that it has expanded its relationship with Iformata, a telepresence and video conferencing solutions provider.

As Iformata's primary provider of IP services, Level 3 will deliver that company's high-bandwidth traffic via Internet protocol virtual private network (IP VPN) across its integrated multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) platform.

"We rely on Level 3's highly reliable and secure global network to provide our customers with the cutting-edge telepresence solutions they demand," said Brian Kinne, executive VP of Iformata. "Level 3's enterprise solution provides us with the flexibility and scalability we need to manage the explosive growth we have been experiencing. Managed Services providers who seek to extend the boundaries of limited technologies and networks will be the winners in the long run, and our relationship with Level 3 certainly provides that benefit to us."

Iformata said it will leverage Level 3's international backbone to deliver services and provide services that support around-the-clock availability for telepresence and video conferencing solutions to their customers. Level 3's IP VPN service enables Iformata to converge voice, video and data on a single platform with the flexibility to prioritize network application traffic by class of service. The breadth and depth of Level 3's network reach gives Iformata access to the footprint they need in anticipation of future growth.

"We are pleased to provide Iformata, a pioneer in telepresence solutions, with a reliable and secure data networking solution," said Jeff Tench, president of Level 3's Business Markets Group. "With the reliability of Level 3's IP VPN service on our newly integrated MPLS backbone, Iformata can deliver quality services to their customers with flexibility to scale easily as their needs continue to grow and evolve."

Level 3 Communications is a provider of fiber-based communications services. Enterprise, content, wholesale and government customers rely on Level 3 to deliver services with a combination of scalability and value over an end-to-end fiber network.

  • Seven Best Practices for Speech Analytics: Speech analytics is valuable for identifying issues in the contact center. However, limiting its use to the contact center only considers a portion of all customer interactions and subsequently only reveals a small part of the voice of the customer.

  • Understanding the Voice of the Customer: Today's contact centers involve a sea of information that must be captured, processed, and distributed on a daily basis. Effective use of this information enables companies to remain competitive in an increasingly aggressive and customer centric marketplace. An overwhelming percentage of the information that circulates in a contact center's audio recordings, documents, web pages, and emails is unstructured in that it resides outside of a normal structured database and cannot be managed efficiently. These unstructured items contain valuable information, yet this information historically has been difficult to organize, categorize, and access.
