Artisoft Announces Migration Program for Picazo Users

Strategic Insights

— 1 min read

Artisoft, a leading developer of software-based phone systems for small- to medium-sized businesses, has announced a program to provide resellers and customers of Picazo's PC-PBX products with a clear migration path to Artisoft's TeleVantage software-based phone system. This move comes after Intel's acquisition of Picazo, which has resulted in Intel deciding not to pursue new customer engagements for Picazo PBX products.

Artisoft will provide Picazo dealers with discounts on TeleVantage software products, as well as marketing, training, and support programs to enable them to meet the needs of their computer telephony customers. This cooperative effort provides an adaptable, long-term solution that allows customers to work with their chosen best-of-breed applications and continues to increase in value over time.
