25 Year Industry Veteran Brings Sales & Customer Management Skills From NACT to PhoenixSoft

Phoenix Arizona - February 24, 2009: PhoenixSoft, the leading provider of next-generation communications platforms for converged networks, today announced that Robert J. Bona has joined PhoenixSoft’s sales team, where he will help service providers implement solutions based on PhoenixSoft’s award-winning Cirrus softswitch platform.

Bona comes to PhoenixSoft from NACT Telecommunications, where he spent almost ten years in direct sales and management activities. During his tenure at NACT, Robert was consistently recognized as a top performer securing new accounts. As PhoenixSoft’s new Sales Director, Bona’s charter will be to cultivate new accounts, and to work with PhoenixSoft’s management and support teams to ensure the success of all of PhoenixSoft’s customers.

“Robert’s energy, his focus and his extensive contacts in the industry are just what we’re looking for, as we move to the next stage of our company’s growth,” said PhoenixSoft co-founder Paul Amick. “I’m looking forward to working with Robert, and to leveraging his talents in order to serve our customers.”

“I think PhoenixSoft is in the right place, at the right time – with award-winning technology and applications that help service providers deliver broadband class 4 and class 5 offerings on a single platform,” said Robert J. Bona. “PhoenixSoft’s sales & support model is also a strong part of the value proposition, because it is highly tailored to meet the needs of their customers.”

Since the beginning of the year, PhoenixSoft has announced agreements with eight different customers, who all plan to deploy their VoIP switching applications in the first quarter. Earlier this month, at ITEXPO in Miami, PhoenixSoft received TMC’s “Best-of-Show” award for its Cirrus Softswitch platform. At the show, PhoenixSoft announced an NACT Migration Plan, as well as a hosted offering that makes it easier for service providers to IP-enable their networks. And next week, PhoenixSoft’s management team will be on hand at Comptel Plus Spring 2009, in Dallas. Anyone interested in meeting with PhoenixSoft at Comptel should contact Paul Amick at pamick@phoenixsoft.com.
