The recognition comes on top of a successful year for the company, which has consolidated its reputation for offering high quality and innovative services in the information and communications technology (ICT) industry.
The World Vendor Awards, which is organized by Total Telecom, focus on telecommunications industry vendors and use a panel of independent and impartial industry experts to judge entries. The awards give recognition to the true excellence among the companies supplying the hardware, software and services for the telecommunications industry worldwide.
The Best Hosted Solution award was given to CITIC Telecom CPC's Managed Video Conferencing Service -- VC² (VC-square).

The award comes at a strategic time as the company recently announced a name change from CPCNet to CITIC Telecom CPC and is preparing to launch two new solutions in its third flagship series -- SmartCLOUD. Hitting the market in the near future are SmartCLOUD Compute, a revolutionary virtual server solution that goes beyond ordinary offerings to deliver best-in-class high-performance and high-availability with unprecedented value and management ease; and SmartCLOUD Mail, a suite of secure business e-mail management tools with strong mobility.
