Founded in 1999 as a reseller of connectivity solutions, Bandwidth has grown into an enterprise-grade software and telecom company offering voice, messaging, 9-1-1, and phone number services to their growing base of customers that includes companies such as Google, Microsoft Skype for Business, and RingCentral.
Having helped pioneer the concept of SIP trunking in the early 2000s, Bandwidth grew their offerings, adding 9-1-1 access in 2010 and continuing to grow their SMS solutions to include A2P messaging via toll-free texting in 2017.
Having established themselves as a telecom company, Bandwidth moved to software, developing a suite of APIs to allow their offerings in voice, messaging, and 9-1-1 to be seamlessly integrated by companies looking to add these services to their applications.
Relocating to Raleigh from their original Denver offices, Bandwidth has grown to more than 300 employees and, at the end of 2017, went public on the Nasdaq Stock Market.
