Telefônica Vivo (Brazil) Extends Multi-Year Managed Services Agreement and Expands with Selection of Amdocs Data Management Solution

Amdocs hits major migration milestone; well on-track for successfully migrating all Vivo B2C mobile consumers to its market-leading suite


ST. LOUIS, Sept. 02, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Amdocs (NASDAQ: DOX), a leading provider of software and services to communications and media companies, today announced that Telefonica Vivo has extended its Amdocs partnership with the signing of a multi-year managed service extension agreement in support of VIVO NEXT postpaid and FTTH consumer business.

In the move of subscribers from legacy systems to a modernized digital platform with industry leading capabilities from Amdocs, Telefonica Vivo will be able to drive better intelligence into their core operations for increased business velocity of new revenue, new services and improved customer experiences.
