VentureBeat: Voice startup rollup continues: SabSe buys Jaxtr

  • Heidi · 6 months ago
    Hey Eric -

    I'm assuming it was a fire sale? Jaxtr was running low on cash/not generating enough profit to maintain its existence. What's next OOMA?

    I've been trying to get more out of the companies and I haven't so far. A firesale is a possibility. Dunno about ooma.

    Jajah and Jangl merged??? You sure about that...this is the first i've heard of it. I know some of the folks from Jangl left to join JAJAH, ant the story this piece links to is regarding Jangl using Jajah's platform, but no merger.

    Last i heard Jangl was wandering off into the distance while jajah continues to go strong,,,

    And are we still persisting that Skype's sale was misguided? From whose perspective - surely not eBay's who is raking in millions of dollars profit.

    "Merged" is an incorrect way of referencing the articles we wrote about, where Jangl and Jajah first formed a strategic partnership, then Jangl sold its assets to Jajah, and some employees moved over.

    I'm not the first person to question eBay's purchase of Skype; and, also, Skype is spinning out of eBay.

    I'm not saying there's no business in VoIP -- I'm just pointing out the issues.

    Jaxter bring the new concept in the VoIP industry and good to know that Sabse take up this project, according to recent report from telecomTV the race is in between Skype, truphone, Jajah, Fring, Vopium and Nimbuzz. So that will interesting to watch that how Jaxter perform among them!!
