BANGALORE, INDIA: BT has announced that its corporate voice-communication solution, BT Onevoice, will integrate advanced voice services from BT’s open innovation platform Ribbit, bringing feature-rich voice applications to the desktop.

Onevoice Ribbit v1.0 connects the worlds of the web and traditional corporate voice networks by embedding Ribbit’s innovative voice features into any existing corporate telephony environments.

The service is aimed at multinational customers looking to realise the benefits converged communications deliver. It will also significantly lower operational, network and administration costs by keeping voice calls on-net, minimising expensive international calls.

Onevoice Ribbit v1.0 will provide users with a single direct dial phone number for all incoming and outgoing calls making it easier for customers, suppliers and partners to contact them first time. Users will be able to define how calls are routed through the Onevoice VPN to reach them if they are away from their office.

Calls will be delivered on-net to other sites directly to the Ribbit softphone or via the nearest PSTN breakout point to any number globally, minimising international call costs. Users can choose to have multiple device options for making and receiving calls through the Onevoice network offering significant call savings on mobile bills.
