  Cisco Innovation of the Year 2007

  Node4 are proud to announce that they have been awarded Cisco’s Innovation Award of the year for the UK and Ireland. The award was accepted by Node4’s Managing Director, Andrew Gilbert in the annual Cisco Partner Summit in Las Vegas, Nevada in April. The global awards are given out by Cisco to honour outstanding partner achievements throughout the year of 2006. Node4 won this award due to their hard work and innovative thinking behind hostTALK, their hosted telephony service which is built on Cisco’s CallManager.

  Node4 Managing Director Andrew Gilbert said:

  We are extremely pleased with this award as it recognises all of the hard work Node4 has put in to get hostTALK up to the standard it is today. We are delighted to have been recognised by Cisco to be raising the standard of innovative technology in the UK.

  Node4’s hostTALK allows businesses of all sizes to communicate efficiently and cost-effectively using Cisco IP telephony. Cisco CallManagers are hosted in Node4's state of the art data centre and the customers' phones link into the system across a voice-enabled broadband network.
