Orion Names Channel Chief, Launches Push to Talk

Orion Labs has launched the Enterprise Voice Platform, meant to be used with Orion Labs’ smart walkie-talkie Onyx, which provides push-to-talk technology to anyone on any network, including Wi-Fi, anywhere in the world.

“Adding the ability for heads-up, real-time, secure communications between teams no matter where they are in the world will be transformative for organizations,” said Greg Albrecht, CTO at Orion Labs. “The Orion Labs Enterprise Voice Platform promises to enable a new level of collaboration by marrying enterprise-grade controls, including flexible communication structure and permissions management with easy-to-use, desirable hardware.”

Orion Labs also announced the hiring of Mort Jensen, previously head of channels at Samsung SDS America, as the new head of sales and channels. His focus will be to drive customer growth in commercial and government organizations looking to leverage real-time, secure, heads-up communication and collaboration.

“Our Enterprise Voice Platform will help organizations transform how their employees, partners and customers interact and communicate,” said Jensen. “The Orion Labs Enterprise Voice Platform finally brings push-to-talk communications into the modern age, and equips IT departments with the tools they’ll need to effectively manage and secure this communication.”
