More Singapore IP Communications Stories

The voice communication domain offers lucrative opportunities for players who can understand the market and deliver what the customer wants. Now Geodesic, a provider of software products focused on information, communication and entertainment, has decided to test the waters in this domain with Spokn, the definitive Internet telephony service.

 

Spokn Communications Pte Ltd. is a Singapore-based Internet telephony service provider. Essentially, Spokn allows your friends and family to call you from their regular phones by dialing a local access line (available in more than 40 countries). And you don’t have to pay anything at all to receive their calls.

 

According to Geodesic (News - Alert), Spokn bridges the gap between traditional public switched telephone network and VoIP services. It provides users the benefit of inexpensive Internet calling rates on a wide variety of devices such as mobile phones, smartphones and regular landlines or computers.

 

“Spokn is a true revolution in the world of telecom,” said Anil Raj, head of Spokn. “Not just a new technological offering but also a new attitude. Innovative but also honest, radical in approach but simple and straightforward to use. Finally I think callers have a product that truly brings together the promise of Internet telecommunications with the convenience of traditional telephony.”

 

With its free incoming service offering, Spokn subscribers can choose to receive these incoming calls on their mobile phones or land lines for a small cost. Spokn also offers voice messaging service, which can record and send a 20 second message to any telephone or e-mail account worldwide.

 

Recently, the company partnered with Sybase 365, a subsidiary of Sybase, Inc., a major player in mobile messaging services, to extend the breadth of Geodesic’s service portfolio and to further expand its large global user base. This partnership will help Geodesic to extend its offering throughout Asia, Europe and beyond, bringing its mobile communication services to a significant number of new customers.
