Clarus Systems Partners with tekVizion Labs
tekVizion Selects ClarusIPC Software to Help Test and Verify Functionality of Third-Party IP Telephony Software
REDWOOD SHORES, CA and RICHARDSON, TX - (October 11, 2006) - Clarus Systems, a leading provider of IP telephony productivity solutions, and tekVizionT PVS, Inc., the new standard for systems integration, announced today that the two companies have entered into an agreement that will allow ClarusIPC® Certification software to be used in tekVizion LabsT, the first lab of its kind offering third-party certification and testing for Voice over IP (VoIP) products and services.
The ClarusIPC Certification automated testing and reporting software validates and certifies that all aspects of a Cisco IP telephony deployment are operating as designed. tekVizion Labs performs the interoperability testing required to verify that Cisco Technology Developer Program (CTDP) partners' and/or affiliates' products meet the criteria of the Cisco Technology Developer Program. According to the agreement, tekVizion Labs can now use the comprehensive ClarusIPC solution to speed the testing and validation of third-party Cisco vendors' and service providers' products.
Chakra Devalla, Vice President of Operations at tekVizion, commented, "tekVizion testing and certification for Cisco CTDP program requires many complex configurations of products. ClarusIPC Certification software offers an impressive solution for efficiently managing those configurations, especially down to the user functionality level. This will streamline the testing and certification process and eliminate time-consuming analysis and debugging of configuration issues. We anticipate that ClarusIPC will help tekVizion Labs save significant time and resources in the validation of Cisco Technology Developer Program partners' products."
tekVizion Labs, with access to over 200 legacy and next-generation vendors' products, offers a wide range of on-site and remote testing. Its state-of-the-art test lab facility and extensive library of comprehensive test plans are what make tekVizion Labs a leader in interoperability testing and certification.
"tekVizion Labs plays a pivotal role in the Cisco Technology Developer Program, and we are honored that they have chosen to integrate ClarusIPC into their extensive testing facility," said Brendan Reidy, CEO at Clarus Systems. "ClarusIPC provides integrators with a powerful tool for objective validation of IP telephony functionality and is an excellent complement to tekvizion Labs' independent testing services."
Potential customers of tekVizion Labs can request testing via the tekVizion Labs website (www.tekVizionlabs.com) or by email at sales@tekvizion.com. The tekVizion Labs website allows registered parties to be notified when new partners join the lab, when products are certified, and when new services are offered by the Labs.
