"The new offering will give customers the control, rapid feature development and deployment, and rich feature base that the Asterisk open source community and its partners provide," Polycom says. Also, under the agreement, Polycom will become the preferred VoIP phone provider for Digium. As part of the agreement, Digium will modify the Asterisk graphic user interface (GUI), Asterisk Business Edition application and Asterisk OS to tightly integrate with Polycom's line of SIP-based desktop and conference phones. According to Polycom, "The co-development work will enable simplified provisioning and support for advanced telephony features like shared line appearance, XML microbrowser plugins and Polycom HD Voice." Polycom and Digium will also work together on joint marketing initiatives and joint selling through common channels. Polycom phones will also be the exclusive VoIP phone in Digium's Asterisk Appliance Developer Kit (AADK). |
