DRAPER, Utah - June 8, 2007 - Telarus, Inc., premier telecom master agent and patent holder of real-time carrier quotes, today announced the
release of a new private-labeled back office software: MARS, which is an acronym for Master Agent
Reporting System. Unlike other telecom agency management software developed by "off the shelf"
manufacturers and branded by master agents, Telarus' MARS was created in-house to the exact specifications
of agents who are users of the system.
"This software isn't a home run - it's a grand slam!" commented Adam Edwards, president of Telarus,
Inc. "MARS combines our patented real-time quoting system, proposal generation system, and our VAR Network
system for other master agents in search of a software solution they can use to run their business just
like we do."
"MARS is a web-based management platform that allows other companies to enjoy all of the competitive
advantages that Telarus has enjoyed for so long" added Patrick Oborn, CIO of Telarus. "Sharing our
technology and opening up our upgraded carrier contracts is a win-win for companies looking for back
office software that actually works."
"Telarus has released MARS with our top agents in mind, demonstrating our ongoing commitment to
developing quality tools focusing on building our agent's business." commented Andrew Morgan, director
of web operations. Mr. Morgan personally oversaw the development and testing of MARS.
Telarus made the decision to invest in the development of MARS after several carrier partners
referred over smaller master agents who did not have the money to purchase, lease, or create their
own back office software. Telarus developed its own back office software in 2003 and has leveraged
it to become a top producing broker for Level3, AT&T, Time Warner Telecom, Nuvox, TelePacific, Covad,
ACC Business, Telnes, and more.
"Without the right web software, master agents are at a significant disadvantage" continued Edwards.
"Telarus' mission is to add value to others so that they can grow and become lifelong partners. MARS
will play a key role in helping accomplish our mission."
