Pactolus service solutions integrate with both legacy TDM networks and best-of-breed elements in next generation networks.
"We're delighted to again name Pactolus to The pulver 100, the VoIP industry's first and foremost award listing, and we expect Pactolus to continue serving as a driving force and benchmark for reliable, secure, scalable, and innovative SIP-based IP communications," Jeff Pulver, Founder and Chairman of pulvermedia.

About the Pulver 100
Originally introduced in 2002, the pulver 100 features private companies in the communications sector that have substantial real-world deployments and enjoy significant growth rates. The value chain characterized by pulver 100 differs from the vertically integrated telecom model of the last century, focusing more on a networking-industry model that espouses open interfaces, connectivity decoupled from services, and software decoupled from hardware.
