  • Company Description
    Fonality believes that a sea change is upon us in these transitory telecom waters. As customers migrate toward IP Telephony, the business phone system is becoming another extension of the business computer system.

    This process of standardization requires the PBX to interoperate with existing IT infrastructure, expanding its capabilities and responsibilities exponentially. Fonality intends to become the industry leader of this market transition by making the enterprise PBX both affordable and standards-based for the first time ever.
