Comverse and Blueslice (News - Alert) have partnered to incorporate enriched media and subscriber management in end-to-end IMS networks and applications for mobile, integrated fixed-mobile and multi-play operators.

 

The joint solution is formed by the combination of Comverse’s (News - Alert) Converged IP Communications portfolio with Blueslice’s Converged Subscriber Platform 3000, HSS 3000 and entry-level HSS 1000. With this solution subscribers are able to enjoy consistent access over multiple devices (fixed phone, mobile phone, PC and TV) to personalized services for communication, entertainment, and information. The scalable solution also benefits the operators as they can now successfully capture a greater share of subscribers’ total communication and entertainment needs. The solution has the ability to meet the most demanding operator requirements.

 

Franck Darmon, VP and general manager of Comverse Converged IP Communications said in a statement that they are impressed with the performance and sophisticated features of the Blueslice product suite. With this partnership, they have added flexibility and an enhanced subscriber experience to their IMS solution, enabling it to adapt to a wide range of deployment scenarios and different service providers needs, including 4G, WiMAX, VoIP, wireless and fixed networks.

“Comverse has been a leader in value creation for carriers, and we are proud to add multi-profile subscriber management to Comverse’s end-to-end IMS solution,” he added.
