“We have commercial agreements with several businesses and enterprises looking to deploy seamless and secure messaging and presence services as an overlay to their existing IT infrastructure,” said Todd Carothers, EVP of Marketing and Products at CounterPath. “Currently, many businesses are leveraging third-party consumer-focused messaging and presence applications in their daily operations. These third-party consumer apps are less efficient than our solution which is compatible with most contact databases and can be deployed in either cloud or premise based configurations. With the launch of CounterPath–s Messaging and Presence Module, businesses can now bring all communications back within the secure confines of the corporate firewall by offering employees an enterprise grade version of the services they need and use in their everyday lives.”
