Jean-Francois Jacques, managing director, MCL Technologies, adds, “MCL Technologies is pleased to partner with LXE to make MCL-Collection and MCL-Voice easily accessible to LXE’s growing partner base.

They can also run voice and non-voice applications on the same device, and even share a pool of devices amongst users. MCL-Voice also offers management and analysis tools to objectively evaluate voice performance.
MCL-Voice certification supports LXE’s commitment to being a leader in providing equipment for voice-based applications by providing robust, quality voice recognition for mobile workers in harsh, noisy environments.
