Irish telecoms company Spearline has acquired Callstats from US based 8x8 for an undisclosed sum, further developing its testing and monitoring capabilities.
The deal will see the Cork company integrate Callstats analytics, diagnostics and optimisation technology for WebRTC into its current products, building a best in class solution for testing and monitoring critical business telecommunication services.
Victor Belfor, global VP of Business Development and Strategic Partnerships at 8x8 said the company believed Callstats was a better fit for Spearline’s capabilities.
It follows Spearline’s acquisition of Israeli company TestRTC for more than €10 million last November, a deal that kicked off its US expansion plans.
