    PamConsult Has a “Fantastic Year”

    http://voiceontheweb.biz/2009/01/pamconsult-has-a-fantastic-...

    Amidst all the macro economic turmoil of 2008, there are businesses that have stuck to their knitting and had a quite successful year. Pioneer Skype Partner PamConsult recently reported on their 2008 achievements where they have both built out their product line and provided consulting services that have resulted in a stronger development team and enhanced product offerings. PamConsult comprises two business divisions: Scendix for software product offerings, such as their widely accepted Pamela utility for Skype (the first Skype Extra going back to 2005) and PamFax, and PamConsult for development consulting where, for instance, they developed Skype for Salesforce.com under a contract with Skype. Some highlights: A major accomplishment has been the ongoing growth of PamFax. During the year they built out the infrastructure to provide the robustness and scalability such that PamFax now supports over 130,000 registered users. They have announced plans for a fax-in service as well as Mac support in 2009. Pamela has now had over 5 million downloads; early in 2009 they expect to release version 4.5; mcePhone, their Skype integration tool for Windows Media Center, will soon see version 3. Finally, PamConsult continues to provide eBay offerings, including the eBay Skype tabs licensed to eBay Germany, eBay France and eBay UK. At last year’s eBay Live event, PamConsult won an eBay Star Developer award for their Jaast for Wii, which brings eBay to your TV via Nintendo’s Wii console. It will be interesting to see how PamConsult’s Skype partnership evolves in 2009 as the new executive team introduces a comprehensive technology roadmap and revamped partnering programs.

    I just spoke with Dick Schiferli at Pamela Systems, makers of PamFax. PamFax is a Skype Extra Premium plugin application that allows you to fax easily, directly from your computer, using your Skype Credit. They've done a great job at continuously enhancing the service to respond to end-user feedback, and making the service easier to use and more reliable. Jim Courtney at Skype Journal provided a thorough review and reported on their latest developments. Highly recommended reading. The thing to keep in mind about Pamela Systems is that they are great at building apps... but not just for Skype... they also have expertise on building apps for Salesforce (AppExchange), Facebook, MSN, Ebay, and others. They are a great resource to those looking to quickly expand their application to these other platforms.
