Non-notable 25-person company, article posted as advertising or spam. Fails WP:RS as the only "sources" are a directory listing on "zoominfo.com", a BBB membership which the company bought and paid for and the company's own website. The "Awards" section is a joke - the supposed "awards" are that they obtained a license from the Federal Communications Commission and paid the annual fee to join the Better Business Bureau. *yawn*

There are thousands of tiny companies tinkering with voice over IP in one fashion or another. This article fails to explain why this particular hole-in-the-wall operator is a notable company. The repeated WP:COI edits from Special:Contributions/Baptiste UWT are also a huge red flag, although the worst has been reverted by now. K7L (talk) 16:55, 30 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Subject fails WP:CORP. References do not meet criteria for conferring notability. A Google failed to yield anythng that rings the notability bell. Bottom-line: This is a small business, one of millions, with no real claim to encyclopedic notability. -Ad Orientem (talk) 17:47, 30 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
