FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
BroadSoft Launches State-of-the-Art European
Operations Centre
New Global Operations Centre Joins Sales Offices
Across the Region to Further Strengthen Commitment to European Market
Gaithersburg, MD and London, 29 March 2006 - BroadSoft Inc,
the leading provider of VoIP application software, today announced
that it will increase its presence in Europe with the opening of
a new global operations centre in Prague, Czech Republic. The facility
will provide unparalleled levels of service, training and engineering
support to BroadSoft customers. Continuing BroadSoft's commitment
to the European market, the new centre will join BroadSoft's other
operations centers in North America and Asia to deliver global 24
by 7 live support through local market technology expertise and
assistance.
The ability to quickly satisfy BroadSoft's more than 30 European
carrier customer needs through a centrally located operations office
was the primary incentive behind BroadSoft's decision to establish
the Prague facility, which complements the BroadSoft sales offices
in Bonn, London, Paris, and Stockholm.
"BroadSoft's new operations centre and overall European executive,
sales, and support presence shows the company's focus on this region,"
said Joerg Zeddies, Director Product and Marketing Management for
Slovak Telecom. "BroadSoft has developed a world-class support
organization, and we find it even easier to do business with BroadSoft
with the local offices nearby. We can confidently deliver our service
offerings over the BroadWorks platform knowing any deployment or
operations question will be answered quickly."
The Prague centre joins BroadSoft's existing operations facilities
in North America and Asia to deliver live 24 by 7 support capabilities
worldwide. The company's increased presence in Europe will bring
benefits to both new and existing customers in terms of enhanced
responsiveness to technical customer needs whether pre or post sales.
The BroadSoft operations centre will also allow the company to cement
stronger ties with customers in the European telecoms market.
"Europe is an incredibly diverse market offering great potential
for multimedia applications software," commented Howard Lewis,
General Manager - Europe for BroadSoft. (See related BroadSoft announcement
today.) "With the Prague facility dedicated to operational
support excellence, we are drawing on resources in the region to
attract eager, highly qualified local engineering talent that will
ensure a rapid response time for our customers, further committing
our corporate resources to enhancing our reputation for superior
customer responsiveness and satisfaction across Europe."
The centre will be supporting carrier customers deploying BroadSoft's
VoIP application software over the BroadWorks platform, with hosted
PBX applications for SMEs, mobile PBX solutions for extending enterprise
communications functions to mobile workers, business trunking that
interconnects customer premise equipment, and residential broadband
solutions for consumers who use VoIP as their service at home.
