Xura Honored for Exceptional Innovation in
WebRTC Technology with the forge SDK
WAKEFIELD, Massachusetts,
March 18, 2016 /CNW/ - Xura,
Inc. (NASDAQ: MESG), a leading provider of secure, digital
communications services, announced today that TMC, a global,
integrated media company helping clients build communities in
print, in person and online, has named Xura's forge SDK as a 2016
WebRTC Product of the Year Award winner.
In 2015, the team at Xura, completed a major re-architecture of
their forge SDK to provide enterprise customers with additional
flexibility, customization and control in implementing and enabling
contextual click-to-communicate functionality in webpages and
mobile apps. The forge SDK was updated to enable and store
recordings, support highly secure messaging, as well as power
multi-party conferencing which spans across voice calling, IM,
chat, text messaging and video conferencing.
Xura also launched its forgeAS (forge Application Server) making
it easy for companies to add advanced services within apps, to
provide a highly custom experience through what would be a normally
complex process. For example, with forge AS enterprises can
better support their call centres, by integrating additional
functionality such as call queuing and routing based on customer
type. This could also allow for contextual videos which can
be shown during hold time, alongside premium billing associated
with a certain tech support category, and connectivity into
existing CRM systems to gather previous purchase information,
language, or billing preferences.
"Last year was a big year for us in terms of enhancing our
WebRTC technology and gaining customers in the financial services
sector, and we're excited that our hard work is paying off with
this award. Looking forward, we hope to see our product
updates and use-cases being realized in 2016 and beyond as more and
business see the benefit of rich WebRTC-based communications," said
Eric Bilange, EVP Innovation, Xura. "This is just the start of an
upward curve and we are ready for what the future holds."
"It gives me great pleasure to honour Xura as a 2016 recipient
of the WebRTC Product of the Year Award for their innovative WebRTC
product, in the forge DDK," said Rich Tehrani, CEO, TMC. "Our judges were very
impressed with the ingenuity and excellence displayed by XURA in
their ground-breaking development work."
