IVR Provider Voxeo Announces Tropo.com Source Code Now Free, Offers International SMS for Developers

By David Sims, TMCnet Contributing Editor

Just last year, at the O'Reilly Open Source Convention, Voxeo, a vendor of Unified Communications (News - Alert) and self-service platforms announced that the Tropo.com cloud telephony service source code would be made available to developers for free under open-source licenses.

At the time, Voxeo (News - Alert) officials said the release, "demonstrates that cloud computing vendors can subscribe fully to open-source ideals, and avoid the proprietary lock-in typically found in cloud services."

Tropo.com provides a cloud telephony service that lets developers write voice applications in popular programming languages including Groovy, JavaScript, PHP, Python and Ruby.

Since then, the company has announced a number of open-source projects.

Also in support of developers, the company made headlines in May of this year with the announcement that it expanded its free developer program to include international SMS numbers, support for European languages and local direct inward dialing “DID” numbers.

These enhancements, according to company officials, were targeted at developers in EMEA to allow for the creation of voice, IVR, text and multi-channel communications applications in a free development environment.

Jonathan Taylor, CEO of Voxeo said that unlike cloud vendors "that use open-source but offer little back to the open-source community, we're showing how cloud computing can be both completely open for end customers and concretely beneficial to open-source developers."

To help customers, partners and developers get the most out of their solutions; the company also offers “Voxeo University,” a series of educational courses on their products ranging from foundational to advanced, and offer certification exams.
