MIXvoip announces the possibility to connect with Skype users

Luxembourg, 24^th May 2011 – MIXvoip announces the possibility for all MIXvoip customers to now expand their audience by connecting to Skype users.

MIXvoip, a Luxembourg based Voice over IP company, targets essentially businesses by providing lower communication costs and higher flexibility. By giving customers the possibility to now connect to the major worldwide telephony player and its users, MIXvoip positions itself on the forefront of technology.

« We have realized that Skype has an incredible fast growing user base. The fact that our customers can now call and be called by Skype users is an essential business feature that will facilitate communication between the small and medium enterprises and their existing as well as potential customers. Today, for only 5 Euro per channel per month, a firm can connect its existing telephony system to the Skype network. We have thus developed an extra module, easy to install in order to connect MIXvoip’s and Skype’s users », explain Loic Didelot, co-founder and CTO of MIXvoip.

Skype will be available on even more devices after Microsoft’s recent acquisition of Skype. Plans exist to integrate the Skype software into Kinect, Xbox and a wide range of Windows devices such as mobile phones.

MIXvoip focuses on business customers and whereas Skype focuses on a larger , private user base. Companies need private individuals as customers. This is the reason why MIXvoip took the step to implement Skype. We care about our customers and we want to reach our customers in any way. Skype is one of those ways through which a business can be reached and it is important for any business to be reachable by any possible means.

It is important for MIXvoip to allow its customers to expand their range of options and connections. Indeed, the integration with the Skype network is a great new add-on to the existing MIXvoip services such as: the acquisition of international numbers, fax to email, and the calling of international and national numbers at lower call rates. We strongly believe that a company should be present where its users and customers are present. MIXvoip’s Skype interconnection will provide that solution to our customers.

Loic Didelot, founder and CTO of MIXvoip comments, “The MIXpbx is a virtual telephony  solution for all communication needs. No matter what type of business you are – a big business or a SME, and where you work from – your home-office, or a virtual office, having a hosted PBX means flexibility, cost reduction and effective communications, without the expense of buying and maintaining your own phone system, software or even hardware. All you need is a phone and we take care of the rest”. Telephony is moving into the cloud in the same manner as server, backup and e-mail solution do.

The MIXpbx can increase the capacity of an old PBX and allows the connection of new voice over IP phones. Calls can then be routed between the old and the new phones without technological hick ups.

The virtual or cloud version of the MIXpbx encompasses a number of competitive features and advantages that cannot be overlooked:

The use of Voice over IP is synonymous of flexibility and reliability with 99.999% uptime, real call routing, interactive voice menus, simple administration, and professional support. The MIXpbx can be up and running within minutes.
The installation of a VoIP system does not imply a big capital outlay and customers will directly benefit from a large panel of extra features. With a virtual phone system, all incoming calls can be routed to any type of phone, anywhere and “in some cases you could even save the expense of an office rent and move into a virtual office. Take for example a company of 5-6 employees, completely sales oriented, willing to develop across European borders with people always on the road, there would be no need to set up an office to receive customers’ calls This flexibility is key in today’s businesses”, says Loic.

Thanks to the MIXpbx and its large number of incoming lines, any number being called will never ring busy. The MIXpbx also allows the set up of a custom greeting, which certifies a company’s professionalism and makes it a customer care oriented business.

Small businesses often start with a small PBX and have to buy new systems as they grow or pay too much up-front, trying to make sure their system will be big enough to handle future growth. “The MIXpbx answers this issue as it is based on a pay as you grow cost model that allows to start as small as you want and grow to unlimited size, while only paying for what you need”.

The Voice over IP communication system offers a great range of advantages and allows low cost calls. MIXvoip has developed state of the art services for an even more optimised telephony experience.

About MIXvoip

MIXvoip S.a has been founded in 2008 to provide innovative VoIP and PBX solutions for small medium entreprises and private individuals. It became a leading provider offering the best of VoIP, Fax, PBX gateway and Softphone Solutions which are now available for iPhone, Windows, Mac and Linux. For more than two years now, MIXvoip has offered its extensive and expanding customer base the ability to make long distance calls for little to no cost.

Kiax has been built for the three most popular platforms, Windows, Mac OS, and Linux. The Kiax team wanted to be sure that the release is stable and ready for everyday use, therefore the development team is still working on providing more features in the near future. Among these are the ability to create multiple accounts, translations and call features like transfers and conferencing. In the long term Kiax will support the SIP protocol, XMPP chat and video calls.

About Kiax:
The Kiax project started in early 2004 due to the demand for a user-friendly, free and open softphone. Kiax has been downloaded by more than 60,000 users, and is included in many popular and major Linux distributions. Despite its proven stability, the development of the first release had reached a point where further modifications and customisation became difficult. That is when Forschung-Direkt, together with MIXvoip and encouraged by Corpoinvest, restarted the Kiax development. The Kiax 2.0 release is a complete re-write of the original software and provides a more flexible architecture for future modifications.

The interoperability and integration with third party applications has been greatly improved. Kiax supports a wide range of possibilities to enable click2dial and integration in CRM or web applications. Several additional tools, such as add-ons for Firefox, Internet Explorer, and Outlook, will be released in the very near future.

The entire source code is published under an open source license on SourceForge.net. Here you will find forums where you can ask questions, and give feedback and suggestions to our development team.

Corpoinvest, a Seed Stage Venture Capitalist:

Venture capitalists finance different stages of the development of a company, such as the seed stage, the start-up stage and the expansion/growth stage. The seed stage is the stage at which funding is supplied in order to support the financing of research and development, and the initial establishment of the business. This is where Corpoinvest appears. We finance the first phase, which is the stage of the growth of a concept, and then link the project with other investors. The emphasis is on getting the firm ready to start operations. The entrepreneurs develop the business model, company goals and long-term product strategy using the advice and support of Corpoinvest. Access to capital is a critical part of any new entrepreneurial effort. Here the importance of Corpoinvest comes into focus, as we can provide investment at a stage when there is no real existence of a company or a real product.
