“Adding a reseller like INSI, with its exceptional customers, credibility and experience in the IT and VoIP industries, allows Sipera to introduce its solutions to even more businesses,” said Seshu Madhavapeddy, Sipera president and CEO.  “This new partnership is a great match of Sipera’s VoIP security innovations with INSI’s expertise and service of VoIP deployments.”
