A leading provider of unified communications solutions, Esnatech has long been a pioneer in enterprise messaging and communications. Merging the power of the Esnatech application server with the advanced functionality of PhoneTag's speech to text services makes the Telephony Office-LinX platform the most complete platform in the industry today, offering a wide range of out-of-the-box unified communication applications such as unified messaging, fixed to mobile convergence, enterprise presence, instant messaging, SMS messaging, fax server, IVR, speech recognition call routing, and now automated voice-to-text transcription services in a simple single platform solution.

"Adding the powerful and accurate PhoneTag voice-to-text services to our unified communications platform positions us again as a market and thought leader in this space," said Davide Petramala vice president of sales and marketing at Esnatech. "Unified communications is much more then IP telephony! It's about applications and enabling better business process and practices. The idea of transcription for voice delivers immediate high value to our customers. It extends access to anywhere and provides a critical element to solve many business issues around compliance, security, archiving, and business process. I can seamlessly move messaging and conversations right into a business EDI process such as order confirmations and data collection. This is as huge as it is a simple extension to the unified communications platform and works with an organizations existing phone system and email infrastructure."

"Esnatech is a highly innovative provider of unified communications and we are thrilled that they selected PhoneTag as their voice-to-text partner," said James Siminoff, Founder and CEO of PhoneTag. "PhoneTag's voicemail-to-text service fits perfectly with the high quality unified communication service Esnatech already provides to a wide range of enterprises, making this a win, win for both companies."

Adding the PhoneTag services to the Telephony Office-LinX platform will extend visual messaging capabilities to their already robust unified messaging services that interoperate with all the major GroupWare solutions such as MS ExchangeTM, IBM Lotus DominoTM, Novell GroupWiseTM and GoogleTM applications.
