“We are pleased to welcome Cloud Telecomputers’ Glass platform to the growing list of Metaswitch Mosaic Certified solutions,” said Stefan Knight, VP Strategic Alliances at Metaswitch Networks. “By certifying Glass through the Mosaic Program, we ensure that Metaswitch customers gain access to a highly-advanced communications platform that complements our hosted PBX solution.”

The Glass platform offers Metaswitch customers unique features that enable their businesses to save money and increase productivity. Examples include:

One-Touch Dialing - contacts are integrated into the easy-to-use Glass touchscreen, so frequently-performed tasks like looking up contacts and initiating conference calls are all at the tip of a finger.

Instant screen sharing - anything displayed on a user’s PC, such as a presentation or spreadsheet, can be instantly shared via a Web browser using the Glass platform. Glass accelerates communications.

Business Applications Marketplace - the recently-launched CloudTC Apps Marketplace makes it easy to find and download the apps that business users want to access from their deskphones.

The 8.9” high resolution (1024 x 600) capacitive touch color display enables users to take full advantage of the SIP features of the Glass IP phone. Increased productivity and ease of use are central to the Glass user interface, designed to allow the majority of everyday business tasks to be accomplished with just one touch. Metaswitch customers will appreciate the Glass intuitive user interface and customized versions of commonly-used business applications, such as salesforce.com and FedEx.

“Metaswitch customers can now experience Glass, the first truly smart IP phone,” said Cheryln Chin, VP Marketing at Cloud Telecomputers. “They can now enjoy all the rich enterprise telephony capabilities they are used to, combined with the Smartphone-like functionality and flexibility of the Glass platform.”

Cloud Telecomputers will begin shipping mass-produced phones to customers in Europe, Asia, and North America in the summer of 2011. Infrastructure vendors, OEMs, systems integrators, and VoIP service providers have enthusiastically embraced Glass because of the benefits of requiring less time to market, lower investment in R&D, and ability to customize phone features and application suites for business users. Because the Glass platform runs on the Android OS, it offers applications providers the benefits of an open development environment, flexibility and scalability, and the ability to integrate their applications with unique calling features and a large user screen.
