Today CEO and co-founder Jonas Cedenwing announced a major global expansion of their next-generation telecom cloud platform launched under the company Telness Technologies. To lead the expansion, is former Auka (now Settle Group) global sales manager Sara Rasmussen.
Telness was founded in 2016 by Martina Klingvall with a mission to simplify B2B telecom. Her self-service and customer-centric telecom platform gained traction fast and today has over 6000 corporate customers with a customer satisfaction score of 4.8/5.
Fast track to 2018, where Telness launched the next-generation cloud switchboard to allow business owners to self-activate and self-manage calling features for inbound and outbound calls with just a few clicks.
Telness rapid growth has been possible because of the self-service proprietary, elastic cloud platform developed in-house. The platforms flexibility and scalability has significantly lowered operating costs compared to the industry.
