Co-Location Facility Wins on Scalability, Security

Following an extensive competitive review, V-SPAN selected Worldwide ISDN's U.K. co-location facility to help expand its European presence while still continuing to build on its success in the U.S. Worldwide ISDN will provide network services and management for the co-location facility, located in Slough. Worldwide ISDN's co-location center is operative 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The center provides back-up power generators, redundant data back up and secure off-site storage, advanced fire safety equipment, superior physical and electronic security, experienced support personnel, and complete operational redundancy for its customers. The facility will provide V-SPAN with additional capacity, enabling the organization to continue to expand into the U.K. and European markets and continue to deliver high-quality service to its growing base of global corporate customers.

"V-SPAN remains committed to creating innovative collaboration solutions that include managed services, traditional ASP video, audio, web and streaming solutions," states J. Kenyon Hayward, chairman and CEO of V-SPAN. "We work with best-of-breed partners in creating solutions that support our business. V-SPAN issued a competitive Request-for-Proposal for the co-location agreement, and reviewed proposals from a range of organizations. Selection criteria included security, redundancy, and scalability. The facility had to support our customers as they migrate from ISDN to IP. Worldwide ISDN offered the best solution, without contest."

Worldwide ISDN Taps V-SPAN Collaboration Platform for SME Market

Worldwide ISDN is migrating existing customers to the V-SPAN platform, which will enable the company to offer a full suite of collaboration applications, as well as additional training and adoption programs.

"We previously offered our SME customers select conferencing tools - but wanted to expand our offerings to include simple, cost-effective solutions in all the major conferencing categories: Audio, video, Web, and streaming," explains Linda Baker, Director Conference Services, Worldwide ISDN. "We conducted a competitive review, examining factors such as the service options, customer satisfaction ratings, and training and adoption program support. V-SPAN was strong in all categories."

"We believe that the SME market represents a significant growth opportunity for the conferencing industry," states Russ McFadden, SVP Global Sales, V-SPAN. "Specifically, we see growth in human resources, training, marketing, product development, and sales applications. To support this growth, we must help companies create enterprise communication strategies.
