tw telecom Finalizes GeoQuote Integration

Independent telecom consultants affiliated with Telarus, Inc. now have visibility into the pricing and availability of tw telecom's extensive portfolio of IP-VPN, internet access, and commercial telephone service

Published: February 21, 2012

GeoQuote can now access tw telecom's pricing system in real-time using XML technology. The second tw telecom makes an update, GeoQuote receives that same update and the two systems will remain in sync.

Sandy, Utah – February 21, 2012 - Telarus, Inc., premier telecom master agent and patent holder of real-time carrier quotes, today announced the addition of the new tw telecom Application Programing Interface (API) to its GeoQuote real-time pricing and availability tool. tw telecom is the leading provider of managed services, including Business Ethernet, converged and IP VPN services for enterprises and large organizations throughout the U.S., and globally.

"We are excited about this technological advance between our two companies," commented Adam Edwards, president of Telarus, Inc. "Now that our systems are able to communicate in real-time, our partners will be able to get definitive price and availability directly from the source using our patented GeoQuote system. Sourcing tw telecom industry-leading products in the channel has just taken a giant leap forward."

tw telecom directly connects its fiber network into more than 15,000 commercial buildings, making it one of the three largest Business Ethernet providers in the U.S. Before the API integration was complete, tw telecom channel partners had to obtain pricing through email or a web portal.

"Integrating the tw telecom API into GeoQuote enables quicker and easier access to our solutions pricing," added Dale Kammerich, VP of Indirect Sales for tw telecom. "We are grateful to the members of our team, as well as Telarus, who made this a reality."

"tw telecom has always boasted a world-class network and a superior customer experience," Oborn said. "With the help of the new API, tw telecom will also become much easier to source by our network of solution providers who focus on WAN design and deployment. We appreciate their efforts to make this day a reality; a clear demonstration of their commitment to their partner's success."
