Highdeal Introduces Pricing & Rating
for Video
Demonstrates advanced pricing & packaging
capabilities at the NCTA National Show in Atlanta
New York
- April 5, 2006 – Highdeal, the world’s
leading provider of pricing & rating solutions, is introducing
revolutionary pricing & packaging capabilities for IPTV and
next-generation video services. Available to incumbent cable
and DBS providers as well as new entrants, the licensed software
solution enables video providers to profit from service innovation.
Features of Highdeal’s pricing & rating
solution support broadcast, video on demand and IP-based video services. Capabilities
include:
- Full support for ‘a la carte’ and
lifestyle offers
- Tiered PPV pricing
- Real-time prepaid and eWallets
- Network DVR pay-per-use
- Subscriber-managed, real-time controls
- Third-party settlement
to prevent ‘entertainment bypass’
- Tailored SMB
and corporate offers
Highdeal’s pricing & rating solution, which was recently
selected by a leading North American MSO, leverages existing
billing and SMS systems including those from leading cable & DBS
billing vendors. Service providers can now introduce new video
offers and incorporate third-party services in record time without
disruption to their existing operational systems.
“Next-generation
video services require a robust pricing and packaging platform
that allow product managers to maximize
the revenue potential in their offerings and their broadcast
partnerships,” commented Douglas Lloyd, CEO of IPTV provider
PureNet.TV. “Highdeal’s solution provides the most
comprehensive and flexible video packaging solution available
in the marketplace.”
“IPTV
will be as disruptive to the video industry as VoIP has become
to the telecom industry,” said Camilla Dahlen,
President of Highdeal Inc. “Those
who embrace new technologies and rethink the subscriber experience
will emerge as the winners.
For consumers, this marks the end of the one-size-fits-all offer.”
Highdeal, whose customers also include MVNOs, VoIP providers
and ASPs, provides integrated simulation capabilities that enable
front office staff to analyze the profitability of new offers
and the potential effect of cannibalization before going to market.
For a live demonstration of the solution,
please visit Highdeal at the NCTA National Show in Atlanta,
April 9 – 11, booth
#3347. Service providers are also welcome to participate in the
Highdeal Pricing Challenge at the event. By submitting their
most innovative or challenging pricing & packaging scenarios,
registrants may win one of 20 leather-encased USB flash drives.
Highdeal will demonstrate the scenario fully implemented in Highdeal
Transactive, often within 24 hours.
