"Today, interoperability is the key hurdle to realizing the huge market potential of the open standards communications platforms industry. By addressing interoperability issues, CP-TA fills a hole in the industry and as such, will be a critical gating factor in enabling the mainstream market for certified interoperable products. Customers will benefit from the lower integration costs and faster time to market that these products provide."
