BroadSoft, a software provider to mobile,
fixed-line, and cable service providers, announced that Gamma, a telecom
network operator in the United Kingdom, has selected the BroadWorks voice
application platform by BroadSoft – for Horizon – Gamma’s hosted
communications service.
Horizon offers fixed and mobile telephony
capabilities to mid-market enterprises in the United Kingdom.
Gamma will leverage its own IP backbone and
the BroadWorks platform to bring hosted communications services to
market.
This platform delivers Unified
Communications (UC) services including video, voice, hosted call center,
conferencing, messaging and mobility, for businesses and consumers worldwide.
Horizon includes an easy-to-use web portal that can be accessed from any device
and can be used by any size organization.
“Our focus has always been on
providing channel partners with high quality communications services, and
BroadSoft’s reputation for scalable, reliable and proven technology solutions gives
us the confidence that we now have the ideal platform to launch our
next-generation service offerings,” said Richard Bligh, marketing
director, Gamma.
As a software-based solution, Gamma will
benefit from a scalable solution that delivers 99.999 percent uptime.
Gamma will leverage an open architecture to
offer an enterprise solution that works seamlessly with leading handset
vendors. Gamma resellers and customers will benefit from an open interface and
portal so they can easily manage settings for their customers.
The BroadWorks platform has been proven
through deployments by hundreds of telecommunication service providers. In
addition, it has been validated to simultaneously support more than 20 million
subscribers.
The Software as a Service (SaaS) model
lowers the solution cost to Gamma’s enterprise customers so that Gamma’s
mid-market enterprises will be able to experience a rich set of enhanced
capabilities for hosted voice and UC without the operational expenses
associated with legacy PBX equipment.
“Gamma has established itself as an
innovator and leader in the UK market for voice services and
applications,” said Leslie Ferry, vice president marketing,
BroadSoft.
