MoviStar Puerto Rico Chooses Comptel Mediation for its CDMA Mobile Network
HELSINKI, Finland, September 19 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — Comptel Corporation (OMX Helsinki: CTL1V), a leading OSS software vendor for convergent mediation, charging, provisioning and network inventory, announced today that MoviStar Puerto Rico, a mobile operator in which Telefonica Moviles has an equity participation, has selected Comptel EventLink® mediation solution for its CDMA network. Comptel EventLink® will collect and process MoviStar’s usage information required to bill for its voice, SMS, and advanced data services.
As demand for mobile services grows, MoviStar Puerto Rico realised that its existing in-house mediation solution would not cope with the increasing complexity in the mediation layer. Furthermore, as MoviStar rolls out new data services, it required a convergent solution that could cope with the variety of event types used to charge customers for these services.
Carlos Ortiz, MoviStar Information System Director, says: “After a thorough investigation of the mediation market, we came to the conclusion that Comptel’s mediation solution offered the best combination of functionality, performance, reliability, flexibility and cost to adapt to our evolving needs. Comptel’s solution is proven as it has already been successfully deployed at so many operators. For an operator like us, such a track record is always a key deciding factor.”
Comptel EventLink® manages the collection and transformation of network events to billable records. It provides a consolidated mediation platform for reducing the costs of usage-based charging. Comptel EventLink® will handle voice and data events from MoviStar’s CDMA network and forward them to billing, interconnection and a data warehouse system. It will also be processing roaming records from partner networks.
Reed Sandridge, Comptel Vice President in charge the Americas region, concludes: “MoviStar Puerto Rico joins our growing list of customers in the Americas. Puerto Rico is a very competitive market for mobile services, so efficiency and ease of quickly introducing new services is fundamental to the success of an operator here.”
