CounterPath Technology has been working on a new solution to help bring two popular forms of technology together: communications and virtualized desktop. The leading developer of award-winning desktop, tablet, and mobile VoIP (Voice over the Internet Protocol) has finally done it.

“CounterPath (News - Alert)'s new Unified Communications (UC) architecture has the flexibility to handle delay-sensitive applications, such as voice, across all types of virtualized desktops including thick clients, thin clients and zero clients,” said the company. “A key benefit of CounterPath's UC solution is the ability to interoperate across the broadest range of SIP-compliant network equipment.”

This announcement shouldn’t come as a huge surprise. TMC awarded the corporation as a leader in software products and solutions. At the beginning of the year, they received an award for their Bria Blackberry Edition, a SIP-based softphone application. Since then, the company has continued working hard on development and research. They have spent months closing the gap between technologies, allowing users to move between devices more easily, securely, and productively.

This technology is so advanced and in demand that the infrastructure market is already exploding with the news. The market expects to reach at least almost $6 billion by the end of next year, expecting major corporations to latch on to the new solution.

"CounterPath has made a commitment to the VDI and DaaS markets through development and strategic partnering," said Todd Carothers, EVP Marketing and Products, CounterPath. "By enabling a solution that simply works for Enterprises and Service Providers, we will allow them to offer a complete Virtualized Desktop solution that delivers a scalable, robust, low-cost unified communication solution to their end.”
