Connect Telephone & Computer Group and Apparent Networks Team Up to Deliver Innovative Diagnostic Software to Montana Area Businesses

Network Assessment Solution Ensures That Connect Telephone & Computer
Group’s Customers Receive Maximum Performance

Connect Telephone & Computer Group, an
industry leader in telecommunications, announced today that the company
has teamed up with Apparent Networks, a software developer specializing
in network assessment and performance solutions, to ensure that its
customers are receiving optimal performance out of their network
equipment when making the transition to Voice over IP (VoIP).

"Gartner has warned that fewer than 15% of all corporate networks are
capable of handling VoIP without modification. Converged applications
such as data, voice and video, increase demand on networks and in turn
further emphasize the problems," said Apparent Networks CEO and
president Irfhan Rajani. "Telecommunications providers able to respond
quickly to this need will rapidly differentiate themselves from their
competitors and offer a solution that’s desperately needed when
organizations adopt VoIP technology.

Connect Telephone & Computer Group
recognizes the industry-wide need for our solution and our partnership
will greatly benefit their customers."
By utilizing Apparent Network’s AppareNet, Connect Telephone & Computer
Group will be able to assess their customers’ network condition,
pinpoint and resolve configuration faults, and recommend necessary
upgrades and improvements that will help them implement the perfect
communications solution to meet their customer’s needs.

AppareNet
analyzes network performance including bandwidth loss and usage, and
identifies existing and potential bottlenecks and inefficiencies. By
isolating and eliminating those problems, Connect Telephone & Computer
Group’s customers are able to maximize the return on their broadband
investments, and experience the highest quality VoIP performance
available.

"When a small to mid-sized business makes the move to VoIP, it is
important to ensure that its network is properly configured to make the
most of its existing bandwidth," stated Matt Duray, owner of Connect
Telephone & Computer Group. "It is our duty to make sure this happens
each and every time. This software ensures that our customer’s network
is VoIP ready giving them an increased level of comfort. The end result
is a smoother installation and a high level of satisfaction."

"As companies adopt VoIP, the need for effective network performance
becomes critical," added Mr. Rajani. "Connect Telephone & Computer
Group is demonstrating incredible foresight with this partnership.
Eliminating harmful network conditions assures that their customers will
have a successful deployment and will be completed on time with no
budgetary surprises."

"Pre-deployment assessment is often overlooked by many businesses even
though it can lead to deployment and VoIP quality problems down the
road," said Mr. Duray. "Adding AppareNet to our existing operation
presents another opportunity to provide value-added services to our
customers. Essentially, it helps us reduce their costs and eases the
transition from traditional phone service to VoIP. We’re looking
forward to launching it to our valuable customer base."
