Active Voice Inc.
 PROFILE
Active Voice sends your message loud and clear. The company offers software that manages voice mail, e-mail, and faxes, easing the integration of telephones and computers. Flagship product Repartee offers fax mail, fax-on-demand, call screening, and e-mail text-to-speech conversion (which lets users hear e-mail messages over the phone). Subsidiary Pronexus provides tools to develop interactive voice response systems that allow users to access, manipulate, and process information from computer databases with any Touch-Tone phone. Active Voice took its present form in early 2001 when networking giant Cisco bought Active Voice Corporation and sold Active Voice's voicemail software business back to a group of its former employees.
