Leading Internet telephony provider, Telappliant, has made the shortlist for both the 'Best business unified solution' award for its VoIPOffice Hosted Edition Package and 'best consumer VoIP' award for its consumer website VoIPtalk, at the ITSPA VoIP Awards 2008.

This is the first ever Internet Telephony Services Providers' Association (ITSPA) awards and they have been set up to reward excellence in the UK VoIP and Unified Communications space. Telappliant is up against the likes of Tesco in both consumer and business categories.

VoIPtalk (www.voiptalk.org) offers voice compression technology that enables 80,000 subscribers' high quality calls, even in the most adverse bandwidth conditions. VoIPtalk is a feature rich consumer VoIP offering with voicemail-to-email, time of day forwarding, automatic top up, call divert and inbound number routing. All products offer exceptional customer service and value for money.

VoIPOffice Hosted Edition Package (www.telappliant.com/e2e-package), made the best business unified solution shortlist for its multitude of advanced features: Call distribution, virtual receptionist, unified messaging, audio conferencing, call recording and monitoring, advanced call statistics, CRM integration capability with Sugar CRM and Microsoft CRM. The service eliminates the need to purchase and maintain expensive office phone hardware, making it an attractive proposition to all businesses.

Winners will be announced at the Awards ceremony, co-hosted by Derek Wyatt MP and Ian Taylor MP, at The House of Commons Members Dining Room on 11th December 2008.

Eli Katz, chairman of ITSPA said: "The purpose of the ITSPA awards 2008 is to foster excellence and to recognise and reward achievement.
