SandCherry Announces Delivery of Simplified Multimodal Solutions
Cost-Effective Deployment of Data Services with Integrated Voice Capability
Directly to BREW, J2ME and Symbian Devices CTIA, Atlanta, GA � March 22, 2004 � SandCherry, Inc. today announces the ability to deliver multimodal services directly to advanced handsets from vendors such as Motorola, Nokia and Sony Ericsson. Enabling delivery of speech-enabled applications to any phone using the voice network, SandCherry�s SoftServer� platform can now support multimodal application delivery over a data network to BREW 2.1 handsets and J2ME or Symbian devices supporting MIDP 2.0.
The SoftServer platform�s Multimodal Gateway software offers service providers a simple architecture for deploying multimodal applications without eliminating the option of using multimodal gateways from other vendors. By overcoming the need for separate, overlapping speech-enabled service solutions � for a wide variety of network-based service, automated customer service and workforce management application devices � it decreases the cost and complexity of multi-channel application delivery.
�Widespread deployment of multimodal services requires two key elements,� noted Charles Corfield, SandCherry president and CEO. �Solutions must support a broad array of devices as well as a rational infrastructure service providers can cost-effectively deploy by leveraging it for multiple services requiring speech-enabled components.�
By providing a wide variety of speech-enabled applications for phone and mobile users, SandCherry offers the potential cost savings of automated services with the efficiency and customer satisfaction benefits associated with the promise of true anywhere, anytime access. With voice-only or multimodal (integrated voice and data) interaction, mobile customers are given access to business and consumer applications previously limited to online users.
