Inc Magazine Names Allworx To The 2007 Inc 5000 Listing
Innovative Technology and the Ability to Address the Telecommunications Needs of
Small and Medium Sized Businesses Lands Allworx In the Top Third of Inc.'s Prestigious Listing
EAST ROCHESTER, N.Y., August 28, 2007 — Allworx, the Small Business Phone and Network Solutions Company, today announced that Inc. Magazine has named Allworx to its 2007 Inc. 5000 listing. Allworx has been ranked in the top third of Inc.'s listing – with a growth rate in excess of 237-percent – which is attributed to Allworx' ability to deliver its award-winning telecommunications solutions to small and medium businesses.
The inaugural Inc. 5000 listing is an extension of Inc . Magazine's annual Inc. 500 list – which catches many businesses that are simply too big to grow at the pace required to make the Inc. 500, as well as a host of smaller firms. Taken as a whole, these companies represent the backbone of the U.S. economy.
“Inc. Magazine's recognition of our growth further highlights a tremendous year for Allworx, and we attribute our success to a number of factors, ” said George E. Daddis , chief executive officer for Allworx Corp. “First, our engineering teams have created award winning telecommunications solutions that help small and medium businesses improve their productivity and save money at the same time. Additionally, our channel and reseller partners have delivered our solutions to market in a way that meets the customer's needs better than any other solution, and ensures profitable and enduring relationships between us, our partners, and the end customers that use our technology. We're honored that Inc. Magazine has recognized our accomplishments this year.”
“The Inc. 5,000 provides the most comprehensive look ever at the most important part of the economy – the entrepreneurial part,” said Inc. 5,000 Project Manager Jim Melloan. “The expansion of the list allows us to tell the stories of companies who are making enormous strides in industries that are somewhat underreported in the business media. Allworx' success serving small and medium businesses provides a perfect illustration for the type of company we strive to honor, and we're proud to name Allworx to our listing.”
The 2007 Inc. 5,000, as revealed online at www.inc.com , reports median three-year growth of 140-percent. Complete information on this year's Inc. 5,000, can be found at www.inc.com/inc5000.
