The Magic Of Seven – 7 Years Of VoipNow

From the dust of old centuries until today’s computer-driven and smartphone-glued society, seven has always been considered a magical number. Many believe in the power of seven, be they sorcerers or mathematicians, historians or, in the past decades, even psychologists. Seven days in the week, seven wonders of the world, seven primary colors, seven notes in the musical scale, seven ages of man, Miller’s law on human brain’s capacity of processing information, and the list can go on and on.

So, what makes this number so special? Depending on interest or vocation, you’ll get a different answer every time you ask this question. I’m no scientist, so my answer is not that complicated, yet it does have its touch of magic. 🙂

VoipNow was officially launched seven years ago! On May 30, 2006, 4PSA was the first company in the world to introduce a communication platform that enabled service providers to offer affordable VoIP services, a state-of-the-art substitute for traditional PBX boxes.

It has been a wonderful journey from day one, when the first idea of such a product popped into an architect’s mind. In the years that followed, it turned into a software used by millions of end-users all around the world and it will continue to do so as a platform for providing and using Unified Communications services.

In 2006, the market was still controlled by the giant telecoms. VoIP was considered cheap, low-quality, and insecure. Big, expensive boxes were the normal PBX that powered most offices. The world was not ready for a communications revolution, and yet VoipNow was exactly that! Then, step by step, after having invested a lot of effort in educating the market and as a result of the financial crisis that redefined budgets and forced changes on old, traditional communication flows, companies and individuals around the world started to grasp the huge benefits brought on by UC. That was exactly what service providers needed to embrace such services and start spreading the love. 😉

Before writing this article, I wanted to go back in time seven years ago and reminisce about that May 30 in 2006. I remembered the very first VoipNow order we received immediately after the product became available. Since then, thousands of service providers and millions of end-users have been using VoipNow.

On behalf of the entire 4PSA team, Thank You! Thank you for using VoipNow, for your help to continuously improve the product, for your feedback on new features and functionality, for running your business on VoipNow, and for putting your trust in our vision!
