“As a greenfield operator in a very competitive market, we required a solution that enabled fast time to market,” said Krassimir Stoitcheff, CEO of Max Telecom. “Using Comverse IP telephony solutions, we were able to migrate subscribers in a totally transparent way to receive voice services via a WiMAX access point we brand as MaxVox. Now our customers receive the benefit of high quality voice at an attractive price as part of a single, cost-effective service bundle.”

MyCall Converged Communications delivers a complete, pre-integrated, IP-based telephony solution that improves time to market, reduces operational costs and easily scales up to meet high capacity requirements. Primary line capabilities and a range of embedded value-added applications enable service providers to create a more competitive and profitable portfolio of services. MyCall Converged Communications is based on a future-proof, IMS architecture and operates on Comverse’s market leading Class 5 Application Server. It can be fully integrated with the complete Comverse portfolio of billing and value-added services solutions.

“This is an exciting implementation as Max Telecom is a fully integrated, IP-based next-generation network service provider using end-to-end IP-based infrastructure over WiMAX, and this leads to many innovative services while maximizing the cost efficiencies of IP Communications,” commented Franck Darmon, Vice President and General Manager of Comverse Converged IP Communications. “Comverse’s IP telephony solutions have been deployed by over 80 operators worldwide, and represent over seven million Voice over IP lines in commercial service.
