BOSTON, MA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/08/12 -- Votacall, a leading Hosted VoIP and Cloud-Based Unified Communications Provider (UC),delivers a VoIP solution with a built in Disaster Recovery plan to National Development, a leading New England-based real estate development and property management firm, allowing for constant communication to tenants during Hurricane Sandy.

National Development was in need of a telecommunications solution for two of their newly acquired properties. The organization required their next communications solution to be a cost effective and flexible technology that could easily and seamlessly transition to alternate locations, provide a robust mobility feature set and deliver a Disaster Recovery plan during emergency situations. National Development selected the Votacall Hosted VoIP platform to address their communications needs. Designed, implemented and managed by All Business Communications, the Votacall VoIP solution delivered the necessary functionality in a cost effective manner.

As a development and property management company, the tenant experience is critical to the success of the organization and that experience can and will be defined during an emergency. National Development needed a solution that allowed for efficient and effective communication during a disaster scenario that enhanced the tenant experience. The Votacall Hosted VoIP solution was up to the challenge and was put to the test during Hurricane Sandy. "The Votacall Hosted VoIP solution allowed us to have uninterrupted communication with our tenants during the storm," said Greg Gagne, Property Manager. "With a hosted VoIP solution, we were able to create and update a power outage hotline that tenants could access 24x7 to receive critical updates on the status of power in their buildings."

A Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity plan is critical to the success of any business and the Votacall business class VoIP offer addresses this major hole within legacy platforms. "Votacall provides these two key properties with Disaster Recovery capabilities we would not otherwise have," said Mark Webb, Director of IT. "The anywhere access and control our end-users gain over the solution is a real advantage both on a daily basis and during an emergency scenario. And because it is a fully managed solution, we always have access to the Votacall Technical Team for ongoing support. As the Director of Information Technology, I view this as one of the real advantages of the Votacall Hosted VoIP solution."
