- Evolving Systems Delivers IMS Support at Vodafone Egypt
Solution to support IMS-enabled services, initially push-to-talk
ENGLEWOOD, COLORADO Evolving Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ-EVOL), a leading provider of software solutions and services to the wireless, wireline and IP carrier markets, today announced that Vodafone Egypt has deployed the Company's Tertio™ Content Connector solution.
Tertio Content Connector, a solution introduced by Evolving Systems in July 2005, increases an operator's ability to provision content services. The product is a modular extension to Evolving Systems' Tertio Service Activation solution that reduces a carrier's time-to Market for launching new content services and allows the configuration of new system interfaces with no software coding.
Vodafone Egypt selected Evolving Systems' product to enhance its existing Tertio Service Activation solution. Tertio Content Connector will support Vodafone Egypt's continuing rollout of new data and content services. The initial phase supports push-to-talk services.
"Tertio Content Connector, in addition to the rest of the Tertio activation suite, enables Vodafone Egypt to deliver and create new services more quickly and cost effectively, as well as providing the integration tools to deploy and support new web-based service provisioning such as Push To Talk", said Magdi Tawfiq, Customer Management Solutions Manager at Vodafone Egypt.
Stephen Gartside, President and CEO of Evolving Systems, said, "Tertio Content Connector provides a unique answer to the challenges of activating next-generation services, and helps operators integrate content and service delivery platforms on which new IP-based services can be launched. Vodafone Egypt's selection further demonstrates the value that our Tertio solution offers wireless carriers who operate in a rapidly changing market."
