snom VoIP telephones moving into the Spanish market together with partner Allnet

Taking part in this year's SIMO in November 2005, the international trade fair for information technology, multimedia and communication in Madrid, has paid off for the Berlin-based VoIP telephone manufacturer. Due to the high level of demand for the SIP-based IP business telephones, snom's main distributor Allnet Spain is expecting a sales increase of approximately 20% for this year.

"Our customers are particularly keen on functions such as multilingualism, a large display, headset connection and the possibility of keypad extension - requirements which the models snom 360 and snom 320 optimally fulfill", emphasizes Mike Auster, CEO of Allnet Spain. "For many customers, the option of being able to configure several VoIP providers on hotkeys is also essential", he adds.

"For snom, the positive response is a good basis on which to press ahead with its sales activities on the Iberian Peninsula and the adjoining countries more intensively and with a greater focus, and to tap into new sales markets", says snom's sales and marketing director Dr. Michael Knieling on the next strategic development plans.

To achieve this goal, snom already has a further important partner on board. Telecom Solutions, one of the leading Spanish providers, especially for business customers, has successfully tested the snom telephones and the snom Box for interoperability.
