Digium^® Names Dicar Networks as Reseller of the Quarter

San Jose, Calif., October XX, 2008 —Digium^®, Inc., the creator and primary developer of Asterisk, has named Dicar Networks top reseller for the second quarter of 2008. Dicar Networks applies technology to improve business achievement and provides Digium’s Asterisk software to many businesses worldwide.

“Our customers largely have been small end users and non-profits,” says Dicar CEO Armando Garcia. “They really appreciate being able to save approximately half the cost of a PBX by using Digium’s open source software.”

The phone in this environment is really stepping up to become a business enabler.”
