"Our goal is to become a seamless service provider, bridging technology, communications and computing with the dynamic mobility of today's users," stated David Hess, President and Chief Operating Officer of Rapid Link. "Through this partnership, we will enhance our position within the military personnel market segment, through the packaging of related services to soldiers."
"Integrating our service platforms will broaden the product offering with the combination of our VoIP phone service with Sapotek's Instant Messaging, Email and numerous Hosted PC services and solutions," commented Gene Cohen, Vice President of Operations and Engineering of Rapid Link.
"In today's market it is important to differentiate yourself. Rapid Link helps us achieve this goal by quickly extending our product offering. This will help us attract and maintain the 18-34 year old market that has been and will continue to be crucial to our success," stated Joshua Rand, Chief Executive Officer of Sapotek. "Sapotek is in the process of expanding geographically across markets and into new customer segments, so RapidLink, with its global reach, is a perfect fit for us."
About Sapotek Inc.
Sapotek Inc. was founded in 2002 to respond to the increasing global demand for Internet-based software and services by developing solutions that are both comprehensive and affordable. Having created and tested a web-based desktop that mimics the look, feel and functionality of a local computer, Sapotek now finds itself at the forefront of the Web 2.0 movement. This presupposes the transformation of the Internet from a medium where information is simply published and remains static, into a platform where applications reside and services are distributed.
The Sapotek desktop includes e-mail, instant messenger, file manager with sharing function and image preview, shared calendar, address book with shareable records, chat rooms and forums, web browser, internal and external search engine, MP3 player, a blog creator, as well as MSFT-compatible word processor and spreadsheet programs. Also, because the desktop is a hosted solution, it requires no hard disk space at the end-user level and runs on any terminal or device via the web browser, regardless of its operating system.
