On Tuesday, server software provider Rack-Soft announced the release of a beta version of its 4PSA VoIP-Now, the first VoIP control panel for hosting service providers and Internet service providers.

4PSA VoipNow is designed to simplify the deployment of hosted VoIP services to both residential and business customers. The product can be easily managed over the Web from the browser interface. The 4PSA VoipNow beta is available for selected Linux-based operating systems.

The software has four administration levels for providers, resellers, clients and phone extensions.

All accounts feature independent limits and permissions. Due to the product's flexible structure, 4PSA VoipNow can work in many different environments and although the solution was developed with service providers in mind, it can be used by any company as an in-house IP PBX system.

"Our primary concern while designing 4PSA VoipNow was to build a powerful, yet easy to understand system for all users, regardless of their experience," says Bogdan Carstoiu, 4PSA VoipNOW chief architect.

"VoIP is often associated with low cost. Cost savings are great, but I am sure that the feature rich, flexible communication service will conquer the telephony users. I am expecting to see many new specialized providers able to satisfy the most demanding customers."

The product is scheduled for public release later this month.
