Valiant introduced its new Vantage+ Communications Center. Vantage+ still provides all the functionality of previous generations of Vantage software. The new Vantage+ incorporated VOIP Technology and a workforce engine, developed and hosted at Valiant, that provide supervisors with employee time and attendance information in real time. With Valiant's Vantage+ Communications Center every employee can punch in and out from work via telephone. Their location can be identified using caller ID and supervisors can be notified in real time of late or absent employees. The software also gives employees the ability to hear their current work schedule and allows for text messaging and email communications with all employees.

           
"Valiant's Vantage+ Communications Center is a giant leap forward in the evolution of remote workforce management. Now, managers can be assured of always having proper staffing coverage and can monitor, in real-time, every employee's status, anywhere around the world," said Anthony Petraco, President of Valiant.
