Lead Team: Acision, a provider of mobile messaging, announced the complete
Rich Communication Suite-enhanced (RCS-e) implementation on its latest version
of Acision Broadband Messaging Service Centre (BMSC).
The Acision
BMSC is a single integrated IP communications solution that enables mobile
operators to differentiate through IP based messaging services which provide
seamless interaction across messaging platforms and existing global mobile and
internet communities.
“The
RCS-e initiative, endorsed by the mobile industry and designed to deliver a
more personalised and relevant communications experience, offers subscribers
greater service capability, discovery (including status and location), as well
as enhanced voice and messaging services,” said Marco Wanders, EVP product
division, at Acision.
Acision’s
end-to-end RCS-e solution includes a basic IMS core, RCS-e application server
and RCS-e clients, and provides seamless messaging through interconnect of
RCS-e with the global SMS community and social network chat services such as
Facebook Messenger and Google Talk.
“The
Acision BMSC represents a core part of our messaging portfolio and complements
the industry’s migration towards all-IP communications, providing operators
with a unique service proposition to consumers which includes the best in SMS
and IP,” said Jorgen Nilsson, chief executive at Acision.
The solution
will enable operators to support the core services of the RCS-e initiative,
including instant messaging, group chat, file transfer and video sharing, as
well as a store and forward functionality.
It extends the
existing SMS user experience to RCS-e, while reducing CAPEX requirements by
re-using existing messaging investments and monetizing these assets.
The company
added that with their solution, operators will be able to seamlessly deploy
richer, value-added communications capabilities and interaction with the global
mobile community of 5 billion users from day one of RCS-e introduction.
Last
month,
launched an international network of cloud based data centers, enabling it to
offer on-demand messaging services from within the Acision Cloud Service Store.
