Dallas, TX (PRWEB) June 24, 2005 -- Onit Communications, a leading provider of hosted Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP) services to small and mid-sized businesses in both domestic and international markets, today announced it has been invited to speak at the 2004 Apartment Technology Conference being held November 7 - 9 at the Hilton Americas in Houston. The annual event, which covers a myriad of technology-related issues facing apartment developers and owners, is co-sponsored by the National Multi Housing Council (NMHC) and Multihousing.com as a part of a joint effort to provide members with the in-depth information needed to evaluate, purchase and integrate new technology. The two-day educational forum attracts hundreds of senior-level professionals from the multifamily real estate industry, including CEOs, CIOs, IT directors, network professionals and property operations managers.

Robyn Ray, Onits vice president of client services, and Joel Mills, Onits network technical consultant from Contego Solutions, will be featured speakers in a break-out session entitled: IP Networks-Business Operations and Resident Services. The hour-long presentation and follow on question-and-answer period is designed to provide both technical and non-technical executives a better understanding of how VoIP works enterprise-wide, linking a headquarters location with geographically dispersed properties via a managed IP virtual private network.

We are delighted to have an opportunity to explain how VoIP benefits enterprises like multifamily real estate corporations, " said Ray. Top-level executives understand value and VoIP delivers an all-in-one communications solution -- broadband telephony and high-speed Internet connectivity -- for a flat-rate that represents a 50 to 75 percent cost savings."

Onit Communications will be the only VoIP provider presenting at the Houston conference, according to David Cardwell, vice president of finance and technology for NMHC. We look for best-of-breed suppliers who can provide a well-rounded overview of the technology, the issues and the specific applications to the multifamily housing industry. Onit is one of the fastest-growing VoIP providers in the market and is known for excellent customer service, key criteria for selecting speakers."

This conference is one of the largest, most respected of its kind within our industry," said Larry Kessler, CEO of Multihousing.com. We have earned the respect of participants by providing expert speakers capable of explaining complex technological issues in simple terms that can be easily understood by everyone. Onits speakers bridge the gap between executive managers and hands-on technical professionals."
