New version of VSPortal has just been released
VSPortal is a web based interface for all kind of endusers supported by voipswitch. The newly released version inherits most of the functionality from the previous Portal, at the same time extending it by several new, very useful features. Both endusers and admin part have been significantly improved.
The main difference is the VSPortal look as it is developed in Adobe Flex cross-platform technology. The interface appears using browser’s embedded flash player. Using flash brings much more flexibility in skinning the interface as well as in adding new functions without worrying about compatibility with various browsers and their versions.
Along with the VSPortal a set of web flash components is provided, called VSWeb. The components consist of separate, flash based objects for SignUP, RatesBrowser, RatesCalculator and others. Each of the components can be easily integrated with exisiting website whatever technology is used, for example html pages (php, aspx etc.) or blog/wiki content presentation systems.
Below are some screenshots:

Vippie! beta version release
Vippie! is the name of our new client software which merges the functionality of a softphone (built-in SIPLink client) with other services like instant messaging, sending SMS over IP, voicemail, DID management and others.
This release is however without the IM which is going to be added in next version. The instant messaging part will be based on Miranda IM client – www.miranda-im.org and utilize the XMPP server connected to VoipSwitch database. Thus, the existing SIP users will be able to log in to the IM server using the same account.
Interesting feature is server based voicemail which can be browsed directly from Vippie! menu. User can see a list of voice message with its details and then hear a particular message by simply clicking on the link. The voicemail is accessible also thru other methods of access, for example if user has no access to Internet then he/she can reach it thru calling card access number or callback.
SMS sent from Vippie! are sent in SIP to the voipswitch platform on the provider’side. From there can be directed to other Vippie users, SIP hardware phone with display which supports SMS functionality (e.g our partner www.yealink.com or to external SMS providers thru SIP or HTTP protocol.
Also Vippie! is equipped in our VOIPTunnel technology that allows to work from behind all kind of firewalls and other blockades , in both directions – it enables both receiving and making calls.
In near future we plan to intgrate with Miranda IM client, then add possibility to create groups of contacts for sending bulk SMS (useful for business customers). Probably our callback desktop client will be added as an optional menu.
Cebit 2008
From 3rd to 9th March VoipSwitch exhibited in Cebit 2008, the world’s largest IT trade show which takes place every year in Hannover, Germany (www.cebit.de) It was 6 very exciting days.
The fair is really huge. We hardly had time to leave our stand (Hall 13, booth C11) which was busy throughout entire time. We held about 300 meeting and collected lots of bussiness contacts.
For our team, working most of the time remotely, such events are also rare occassion to meet in person with our customers. Here I would like to thank them for visiting us.
