MILAN, April 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Mirial today announced that Mirial Softphone, the advanced software client for Full-HD audio and video communication, has become a part of PicturePhone's portfolio.

Founded in 1993 in Rochester, NY, PicturePhone is one of the world's largest Value Added Distributors of videoconferencing products and accessories, offering an extensive array of audio and video conferencing solutions, AV integration and advanced technical assistance.

Our mission is to support our customers in the choice of the most effective communication system with a synergistic approach tailoring selected, top-quality audio and video conferencing products on their specific needs, says Dave Weber, Vice President - ICBNR at PicturePhone. Mirial Softphone is the only video conferencing softphone in the market to natively interoperate with the major visual communications standards, to provide a stunning video quality up to Full-HD at 1080p and to include useful features for remote collaboration and document sharing. It has all the characteristics to be integrated successfully and with no effort into any visual communication architecture: this is really a value to us as a distributor since it simplifies our mission of giving efficient and complete high definition options to our network of dealers and integrators.

Not only the partnership with PicturePhone strengthens Mirial's presence in the US, opening the most important distribution channel in the American country and making it easier for local customers to take advantage of Mirial's technology, but also it endorses the company's reputation and reliability globally, comments Brice Drogosch, VP Sales Americas at Mirial. Interoperability is one of Mirial key values, thus we are glad that our Mirial Softphone passed such a challenging test at PicturePhone. I believe that we won't have to wait long to reap the benefits of this collaboration.
