San Francisco, CA, March 05, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- VoiceBase, an industry leading provider of AI-powered speech analytics for the cloud today announced a partnership with Applied Voice & Speech Technologies, Inc. (AVST) recently acquired by XMedius, a global leader in the field of enterprise communications solutions, to power its cloud-based voicemail-to-text service for CX-E, its Unified Communications platform. Together, AVST and VoiceBase deliver secure voice messaging for highly regulated industries – from healthcare, education, and government to the largest global enterprises.

It’s best-of-breed enterprise UC applications include: voice messaging, unified messaging, mobile client, personal assistant, automated attendant, IVR, call center, fax and notification.
