Overview
Expand has evolved into a supplier of a multi-service integrated platform known as The Expand Compass. The Expand Compass developed from the recognition that as applications migrated to the web and were joined by a number of other converged IP services such as VOIP, the challenges facing clients grew exponentially and could no longer be addressed by router-based, or single purpose solutions.
