CHICAGO, IL--(MARKET WIRE)--Jun 25, 2008 -- Epazz, Inc.
(OTC BB:
EPAZ.OB
-
News)
www.epazz.com
announced today that it has completed the acquisitions
of DeskFlex, Inc. and Professional Resource Management,
Inc.
Professional Resource Management (
www.prminc.com)
is a 22-year-old software company based out of Palatine,
IL. Its lines of proprietary software include "Agent
Power" which allows call center managers to control and
monitor agent schedules and productivity. Call centers
benefit from improved planning, scheduling, real-time
agent status, historical agent performance and group
performance. Reports provide feedback to management on a
real-time, daily, weekly, monthly, and year-to-date
basis. The key benefit of Agent Power software is the
ability to establish and maintain the proper balance
between staffing and workload in the call center.
DeskFlex, Inc.'s proprietary hoteling software
supports the use of shared workspaces by multiple
employees. Mobile workers are often absent from the
office leaving their desks vacant. By establishing a
pool of shared resources and a reservation system,
companies can materially reduce real estate expenses by
limiting the space needed for offices, desks, meeting
rooms and even reserved parking spaces. DeskFlex creates
an easy to navigate web site allowing employees to
reserve workspace in advance and interacts with popular
telephone systems to enable phone calls to be routed to
the employee's temporary desk.
Epazz, Inc., Chief Executive Officer Shaun Passley,
stated, "The acquisition of DeskFlex and Professional
Resource Management provides us a solid customer base of
Fortune 500 companies, opening up numerous opportunities
to cross-sell customers on Epazz's BoxesOS and develop
new software programs. We will be using Professional
Resources Management's overseas operations, opening up a
presence in the United Kingdom for Epazz which will
immediately provide numerous international sales
opportunities."
These acquisitions are part of the Company's
long-term strategic growth plan to purchase established
B2B software companies. Epazz is also currently in
negotiations to acquire several other B2B software
companies.
