SAN JOSE, CA — (Marketwire) — 11/04/11 — WorkSpace Communications, a leading cloud provider of Unified Communications solutions, today announced a partnership with AltiGen Communications, Inc. (OTCQX: ATGN) (PINKSHEETS: ATGN), the leading provider of integrated Microsoft-based Unified Communications solutions, to deliver a robust hosted, software-as-a service (SaaS)-based contact center solution for Microsoft Lync.
