e-dimension and Highdeal partner
to make IP Telephony a reality with Jordan Telecom
Middle East operator, Jordan Telecom, deploys
Double Play communications services powered by Highdeal and integrated
by e-dimension
New York
and Paris - January 19, 2006 - Highdeal, the world’s
leading provider of pricing and rating solutions, today announced
its collaboration with e-dimension, Jordan’s leading
IT services company, for the deployment of Highdeal Transactive® for
the Middle East leading operator, Jordan Telecom. The solution
supports the rollout of Jordan Telecom’s much anticipated
Livebox® Double Play - Internet and IP Telephony - communications
service, made available to consumers throughout Jordan.
Jordan Telecom’s double play service
is available through Wanadoo’s ADSL Internet subscription,
but will soon be made available through other ADSL ISPs. Jordan
Telecom’s new Livebox service is delivered over ADSL and
next generation IP-based networks. The service includes rich
features such as unlimited, on-net calls, and competitive tariffs
for off-net local, national, fixed–to-mobile and international
calls. It also includes a number of supplementary services such
as e-billing and web-based customer care and helplines.
“Livebox
voice over internet protocol services consolidates Jordan Telecom’s
regional leadership in consumer services,” comments Luc
Savage, Chief Strategy Officer at Jordan Telecom. “The
move to VoIP was made possible by key advances in convergent
technology and the recent introduction of new regulatory and
licensing earlier this year. In the second phase of deployment,
users will also benefit from video connectivity. Livebox also
promises to underpin new, globally competitive service rates
for business and residential users alike.”
Highdeal Transactive combined with Netcentrex
MyCall® Residential Communications Solution, enables Jordan
Telecom to benefit from easy configuration management and service
provisioning as well as a flexible add-on rating engine with
open API’s. This enables innovative price offerings and
bundles while ensuring seamless integration to existing systems.
To launch the service, Jordan Telecom required
a flexible pricing and rating engine that would enable the creation
of versatile price plans. It also required a solution with the
ability to rapidly deploy offers in line with market demands,
while also having the flexibility to accommodate future offers
built into the product portfolio. Highdeal Transactive’s® robust
software suite easily met these requirements enabling the delivery
of advanced, complex tariff structures.
“Three
months: this was the time constraints we had for the whole
integration project! So obviously an important prerequisite
for choosing Highdeal was its ability to integrate with the
residential communication solution from Netcentrex. Due to
their open architectures, Highdeal Transactive and the Netcentrex
softswitch were seamlessly pre-integrated. This ease of integration
was the key in our final decision.” adds Tamouh
Khauli, CEO of e-dimension.
“We are
proud to be part of this partnership with e-dimension, which
reinforces the strength of Highdeal in the Middle East. This
deal confirms our expertise in projects involving next generation
telephony services. Highdeal’s extensive expertise and
experience enables service providers to rapidly develop and
deploy new services and increase their revenues. We anticipate
further joint customers and success with e-dimension.” concludes Eric
Pillevesse, CEO of Highdeal.
