Centile really met our expectations and made a real difference in terms of platform’s flexibility, scalability, voice quality, and value-added services. Additionally, Centile “Pay per Activated user” business model and certified interoperability with market leading manufacturers of SIP phones (Aastra) and VoiP gateways (Inalp Patton), as well as SIP interconnect providers have eased our deployment and integration".

Bertrand Pourcelot, Managing Director for Centile added: “We are convinced that this move will enable CESO GTO to strengthen its market position and customer ownership by delivering high-quality Unified Communications services and introducing innovative additional.
