Cisco buys two development companies
June 8, 2006 — 8:01pm ET
Cisco Systems is buying two companies to help resellers and customers with customizing their unified communications products. The companies are Metreos, for $28 million, and Audium, for $19.8 million. Their products include application development systems for IP services and voice XML interfaces, respectively. Both deals should close by the end of July, and don't be surprised to see me-too deals from competitors like Avaya, 3Com, and even within the Asterisk world.
