Windstream Reaches One Million SIP Trunk Licenses on BroadSoft Infrastructure

U.S. SIP Trunking Market Leader Reaches Market Milestone Deploying to Businesses in 48 states

PHOENIX, AZ–(Marketwired – Oct 27, 2015) – BroadSoft, Inc. (NASDAQ:BSFT, news, filings) today announced that Windstream Communications Corp. (NASDAQ: WIN) has used a BroadSoft BroadWorks-based infrastructure to achieve a significant new milestone. Windstream now has deployed more than one million SIP trunk lines to businesses across 48 U.S. states, which has led to an industry leading growth rate and Windstream holding a top SIP Trunking market share position, according to industry analyst Frost & Sullivan.

The announcement was made this week during BroadSoft Connections, BroadSoft’s annual global users’ conference and one of the largest events of its kind in the industry.

BroadSoft is “under the hood” of a number of Windstream’s offers — from trunking to cloud-based PBX and unified communications services. Windstream executives have indicated that BroadSoft technology has been a key enabler in helping Windstream build and sustain market leadership against tough competitors, and earn Frost & Sullivan awards for North American VoIP Access and SIP Trunking Service Growth Excellence Leadership for three consecutive years.

“BroadSoft has been a rock-solid platform for both Windstream and its customers,” says Art Nichols, Windstream VP of architecture and technology. “Uptime and interoperability are critical to helping our business scale, and BroadSoft brings both in spades. They are continuously innovating, and can assure that all our network technologies work as part of a single BroadSoft ecosystem.”

“We believe that Windstream’s standout performance is no surprise and that Windstream has made smart decisions evolving their network infrastructure and customer solutions,” stated Taher Behbehani, chief marketing officer, BroadSoft. “Over the past decade, we’ve watched Windstream consolidate multiple legacy platforms onto a single BroadSoft core and create compelling new offers that respond to marketplace needs. We are excited to see what the next decade holds.”
