Medium Businesses Across State
Gaithersburg,
MD - August
22, 2006 - BroadSoft, Inc., a leading provider
of VoIP application software, today announced that O1 Communications, Inc., a leading
California provider of next-generation telecommunications services,
has selected the BroadSoft® VoIP application software
as the platform to deliver high-quality, customized VoIP services.
Beginning in August, O1 will leverage the BroadWorks®
platform to provide hosted PBX, business trunking, and IP Centrex
services to small- and medium-sized enterprises throughout the West
Coast and to wholesale customers worldwide.
O1 cited BroadSoft's
position as the industry leader in VoIP application software, as
well as the platform's flexibility and broad feature set, as reasons
for selecting the BroadWorks application platform.
"BroadWorks
provides a foolproof VoIP solution that enables O1 to offer our
customers advanced VoIP services. Our goal is to reach beyond our
current Sacramento customer base and to expand throughout the West
Coast," said Brad Jenkins, CEO of O1, based in Sacramento, Calif.

of services to market quickly, and to bundle innovative voice and
data packages to meet our customers' specific requirements."
"O1 distinguishes itself
by customizing its services and designing special applications to
adapt to customer needs, rather than forcing customers to adapt
their business models around its service offerings," said Michael
Tessler, president and CEO of BroadSoft. "O1
possesses one of the strongest MPLS wide area networks
in the region. Its deployment of BroadWorks, coupled with a Class
A colocation facility and other new technology, enables
O1 to now offer its customers a full-service telephone
company that is poised to dramatically grow its market share."
