Nuvio Kicks Off Partnership with PowerOne to Deploy VoIP Services in Central Florida

Business Wire, Jan 20, 2005

OVERLAND PARK, Kan. -- Nuvio Corporation, a leading provider of Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), today announced PowerOne Internet, LLC, a full-service Internet and telecommunications provider, has enrolled in its "Powered by Nuvio" Private Label Partner (PLP) Program. Through Nuvio's PLP Total Package offering, PowerOne now delivers VoIP services to its customers in central Florida, focusing on the small to mid-sized business market.

Nuvio's comprehensive Total Package turnkey solution includes development of a branded Web site, private-label billing, referrals coordination, technology support and marketing materials. Its program, which requires no capital investment, allows providers the opportunity to offer this emerging service, without the delay and cost of developing their own VoIP network.

PowerOne is employing both NuvioVoice and NuvioCentrex products to enable a VoIP offering for residential and business customers. NuvioCentrex, the company's full-featured Hosted IP PBX solution, has already aided PowerOne in meeting the growing functionality and low-cost requirements of their smallest businesses.

"Our mission is to be the 'One Powerful Solution' for all telecommunication needs," commented Duane Barnes, General Manager of PowerOne Internet, LLC. "Adding VoIP services to our broad selection of offerings was essential to increasing our presence in the market and serving our customer base. With no capital investment requirement, Nuvio's program made our entry into the VoIP industry effortless, allowing us and our customers to benefit from this immediate service."

"VoIP is altering the way in which small to mid-sized companies fulfill their voice requirements," said Jason Talley, president and CEO of Nuvio Corporation. "NuvioCentrex allows a small company to benefit from a communications package, previously only applicable to large businesses. Our programs and products offer the simplest and most cost effective means for providers to profit from a new offering, while responding to the needs of a small business customer."
