Happy Birthday ProVu!

Happy Birthday to us,
Happy Birthday to us,
Happy Birthday to ProVu...
Happy Birthday to us!


This April, ProVu Communications Ltd celebrate ten years in business. Difficult at times, challenging, fun and always rewarding!

Over the last decade, ProVu have come a long way; starting with video communication in 1999, we embraced VOIP in 2001 as one of the UK pioneers, introducing both Sipura (Linksys) and Snom into the UK market. The decision we made to develop technical expertise in VoIP has paid real dividends, with our own software developments allowing us to offer the industry value added services such as fulfilment and provisioning.

Our product portfolio and expertise continues to increase, just as much as the number of grey hairs on some members of the teams heads! (Mentioning no names)!

We thank all of our clients for your business and support since 1999. We look forward to working with you further and new customers in the future.

Here's to another ten years!


ProVu and AVM Success at UC09

AVM

Thanks to everyone who took the time to visit us on the AVM Fritz!Box stand at the UC show in March.

We thoroughly enjoyed meeting everyone for what proved to be a very busy two days and one of the best shows we have exhibited at in recent years.


AVM's flagship product the new Fritz!Box 7270 received a great amount of interest, proving it will be a fantastic all-in-one VoIP solution, ideal for the small office, within the UK market.

We have endeavoured to contact everyone who called on the stand. Please let us know if you have not received an update to your enquiry.

If you didn't manage to get down to Olympia to see us, our April Product Open Day may be of interest to you. Alternatively just contact us for a chat to see what AVM products can offer you and your customers.

Snom Training Day - Wednesday 29th April 2009


Following the success of previous training days, ProVu are to hold one full day of Snom training. Addressing both commercial and technical issues regarding Snom phones and VoIP.

The day will be hands on with real-life examples and practical demonstrations. We hope you will leave with lots of fresh ideas about Snom phones. Questions are encouraged with lots of participation. It really is a fun day out, especially with lunch included.

Reserve a place. More information and training day agenda.


Snom Tip - KlarVoice Wideband Audio. Double Your Voice Quality

snom

Exchange your standard Snom handset for a Snom KlarVoice handset to capture more than double the spectrum of voice frequencies of standard phones.

The KlarVoice handset is already standard on the Snom 820 Executive VoIP Phone. Now you can gain the same voice quality on your Snom 3xx range.

Using the KlarVoice handset works best if the voice stream between the phones uses the G.722 codec supported by the Snom 3xx family.
