VoIP for business specialist Gradwell's prestigious UK award hailed as the perfect start for 2009
Gradwell - the UK's leading VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) operator for UK business - has hailed its ITSPA award as the perfect start to 2009.
WILTSHIRE, UK, January 16, 2009 /Telecommunications PR News/ -- Beating rivals such as BT, Enta, Hipcom, Inclarity, Voipfone and Viatel, Peter Gradwell - Managing Director of Gradwell dot com Ltd - received the ITSPA (Internet Service Providers Association) Best Business VoIP 2008 award in the presence of Derek Wyatt MP (Chair of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Communications) and Ian Taylor MP at the House of Commons at the end of 2008.
Among its many other activities, ITSPA, the trade body for VoIP providers, lobbies OFCOM. "A distinguished panel of judges representing the thought leaders in the industry completed an extensive analysis of the UKs top VoIP products and services," said Eli Katz, Chairman of ITSPA. "Entries were judged on reliability, user-friendliness, design, innovation, price and value for money. "The purpose of the ITSPA awards 2008 is to help foster excellence, and to recognise and reward achievement. "The winning companies feted in the House of Commons yesterday have made a significant contribution to our rapidly developing and innovative UK Internet Protocol communications industry."
The company winning this business category, Gradwell, has provided the best all-round voice service for the UK business community: the company provides a good selection of business features within its service, including the availability of multiple telephone numbers, and call queuing - and full support for remote workers, he added.
In receiving this ITSPA 2008 award, Peter Gradwell commented:
"When we started Gradwell dot com 10 years ago, we knew our product had to be easy to set-up, reliable, and good value.
"We think we have achieved much of what we set out to do, and have focused very sharply on customer care: if there is a glitch, we have a great team to get things sorted as quickly and as smoothly as possible.
"This ITSPA award is the icing on our 10-year birthday cake - and it could not have been achieved without the excellent workforce that Gradwell has at its - and its customers' - right hand."
