VoIP provider Soho66 nominated to defend ISPA award

Business telecoms provider Soho66 will get the chance to defend its ISPA ’Best VoIP’ title having been nominated to win the award for the second consecutive year.

Last year Soho66 fought off competition in a strong category to claim the ISPA (Internet Services Providers Association) ‘Best VoIP’ provider award, and will be hoping history repeats itself at this year’s ceremony.

Finalists, including Soho66, underwent two months of rigorous technical testing of their VoIP platforms, while winners will be chosen by a panel of judges on the basis of the results from these tests, plus detailed written entry forms submitted by entrants which covered a range of each entrant’s business processes and practices.

Soho66, part of the Pebbletree Group, provides scalable and affordable VoIP and Fax to Email solutions to more than 35,000 business customers across the UK and further afield, with startups and SMEs right through to enterprise and corporate customers being catered for.

A win at this year’s ISPA awards would represent a remarkably good opening half to 2015 for Soho66, having already won one national industry award this year – the ‘Best Business ITSP Medium Enterprise’ at the ITSPA (Internet Telephony Services Providers Association) awards.

The ISPAs – not to be confused with ITSPA – is the UK’s number one and longest running internet industry awards, with the aim of showcasing the diversity and strength of the UK internet industry.

Janni Thornton, Soho66 MD and co-owner, said: “It’s fantastic news being nominated for such a prestigious award – especially having won it at last year’s ISPAs meaning this time around we are out to defend our ‘Best VoIP’ award title.”

“The nomination demonstrates our whole team’s continued dedication to providing our customers with a high quality and reliable telephony solution.”

ISPA Secretary General Nick Lansman said: “Congratulations to all those shortlisted for the 2015 ISPAs.”

“With ISPA celebrating its twentieth anniversary, the long running ISPA Awards continues to reward those who help connect consumers and businesses and underpin our economy and society.”

“These awards are the most rigorous and independent in the sector, with millions of tests carried out and direct input from customers. I look forward to the unveiling of the winners in July.”

This year’s ISPA awards ceremony will be held at the prestigious Brewery in the City of London on Thursday, 2nd July.

As it is Soho66’s parent company Pebbletree Ltd’s 10-year anniversary this year, another national industry award win would undoubtedly be the icing on the cake of a very successful 10 years.
