Telarus (News - Alert), a large master agent, recently revealed that its GeoQuote online platform has reached the 1,000,000th real-time quotes milestone.

Originally created and patented in 2003 by Telarus, GeoQuote can rapidly and accurately quote transaction products offered to business by carriers, including products like data T1, PRI, Ethernet over copper, cable Internet/voice/TV and more.

The offering adds a tremendous amount of value and convenience when Telarus’ partners need to generate a quick price quote and proposal for their clients. GeoQuote has an error rate of less than 2 percent, making it one of the most trusted platforms in the industry.

In a statement, Adam Edwards, president of Telarus, Inc. said, "Reaching the 1,000,000th real-time quotes milestone is a testament to the value we are providing our partners and suppliers." "Not only is the software the only one of its kind in the industry, its showing with all clarity the value of obtaining information in real-time from the phone companies. We are proud to be able to connect our partners and suppliers together and to help each side work with the other in a more efficient and profitable way."

 "When we originally pioneered the GeoQuote platform almost ten years ago, people in the telecom world didn't immediately see the value since they were used to quoting every single opportunity manually, by hand," added Patrick Oborn, VP of Business Development for Telarus. "Even though we were a little ahead of our time, our partners today wouldn't dream of trying to sell transactional products with the speed and efficiency GeoQuote brings to the table."

In related news, TMCnet recently reported that the master agent signed an exclusive agreement with Advantix in March 2011 in order to bring something truly unique to the channel: mobile lifecycle management.
