Comverse: Linking BSS and Policy Enables Smart Monetization of Mobile Internet Traffic Growth

At Broadband Traffic Management Congress 2010, Comverse Spotlights Multiple Benefits of Single Solution Policy/Charging


LONDON, Nov. 11, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Communication service providers (CSPs) can capitalize on the rapidly growing mobile broadband traffic to drive revenue growth. Comverse shows how at the Broadband Traffic Management 2010 industry conference, taking place on November 16-18 in London.

"Effective monetization of data services requires a comprehensive Policy Management solution that is both network and subscriber aware," said Haim Rapoport, AVP Head of Marketing & Product Management, Mobile Internet Solutions at Comverse, the world's leading supplier of software and systems enabling value-added messaging and content services, converged billing and active customer management, and IP communications.

"With multiple standalone network and IT elements, complexity is the main obstacle for CSPs today," said Rapoport. "Only tight linkage between Policy Management and BSS domains can eliminate this obstacle, dramatically improving the user experience and positioning the CSP to cash in handsomely on data traffic growth. Comverse's strength both in the network – including the Mobile Internet domain – and BSS ideally positions us to help operators profit from the broadband data explosion."

Comverse® ONE™ Billing and Active Customer Management extended with Mobile Internet Hub™ policy and enforcement solutions unleashes the broadband data opportunity with Smart Charging & Multi-Dimensional Policy Management. This solution benefits CSPs with significant operational efficiencies and cost benefits, as well as greater agility in defining and enforcing a wide range of data monetization policies through its support of complex charging rules, dynamic upsell triggers and enhanced usage visibility. Managing all policy dimensions holistically, whether network- or subscriber-related, helps pave the way to new profitability while ensuring a satisfying user experience.

Haim Rapoport shows how to remove mobile broadband complexity through the unification of charging and policy management functionalities in his presentation "Unleashing Mobile Broadband Potential – A Synergetic Outlook" at Broadband Traffic Management on November 17, 2010 at 14:40. Meet Haim and other Comverse experts at our booth and find out how you can take advantage of our expertise in Policy Management BSS and beyond.
