Telekenex - Then and Now
In 1994, three computer-networking innovators, each with a unique vision to develop the Computer Telephony Integration (CTI) market, combined their individual talents to form Telekenex. With expert leadership and technical expertise, Telekenex quickly became the industry leader in CTI development and deployment, doubling sales revenues each of their first two years, while maintaining their quality and commitment to their customers.

In no time, Telekenex had grown quickly enough to be recognized as a market leader by Inc. Magazine and their founders recognized as Entrepreneurs of The Year by Ernst & Young LLP.

This growth significantly broadened Telekenex's IP network capabilities, which led to enhanced voice/data solutions. By listening to the needs of their customers, Telekenex invested in a voice and data network becoming a next-generation service provider in 1996.

Serving enterprises and carriers with a robust national network, and innovative connectivity solutions, Telekenex had become a formidable force in the telecommunications industry. By 2000, Telekenex had arrived as the trendsetter in complete IP networking solutions and providing state-of-the-art VoIP applications.

Today, Telekenex manages an international private IP network that delivers state-of-the-art IP solutions to enterprises and carriers. In 2005, Frost & Sullivan awarded Telekenex a market growth leadership award for their Hosted VoIP solution. Telekenex's focus is driving costs from all the cost centers of businesses.

Telekenex is poised to remain at the forefront of the industry in delivering intelligent IP solutions.
