VoIP Magazine Names Digium as One of the Top 20 Companies to Watch in 2006

HUNTSVILLE, AL and SAN FRANCISCO, CA– (January 4, 2005)– Digium Inc., the creator of Asterisk and pioneer of open source telephony, announced today that it has been named to the VoIP Magazine 20: Companies to Watch in 2006 list. The VoIP Magazine Top 20 list features the companies that are best positioned in the coming year to spur IP communications adoption and innovation while, at the same time, delivering on the immediate needs of the marketplace.

“It is an honor to be named to VoIP Magazine’s 2006 Top 20 Companies to Watch list,” said Mark Spencer, president of Digium and creator of Asterisk. “Open source telephony reached many milestones in 2005, and we believe 2006 will be a key year for Asterisk and Digium in bringing open source telecom solutions mainstream.”

Digium is the creator and primary developer of Asterisk, the industry’s first open source PBX, and has millions of users (growing everyday). There are thousands of Asterisk systems vendors and consultants worldwide, and recent AstriCon user conferences have attracted thousands of attendees. Asterisk has enabled solutions ranging from Enterprise PBXs, Call Centers, and Telco-grade Soft Switches, to bicycle-powered telephony systems for rural African villages, and everything in between. Asterisk is quickly reinventing the way businesses, service providers and consumers embrace VoIP technologies to increase productivity and streamline communications.

“As the developer of the industry’s first open source PBX, Digium has pioneered a new model for both the development and delivery of telecommunication services,” said Bryan Richard, editor-in-chief of VoIP Magazine. “We expect this trend that Digium is largely responsible for– enterprise and service provider interest in open source technologies– to not only continue, but grow in 2006.”
