Vedicis and FTS to Deliver Joint Policy Control & Charging Solution
PCC Solution Enables Operators to Manage Data Explosion, Monetize Data Services in Real-Time and Improve Customer Experience
BROADBAND TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT CONGRESS, LONDON, November 15, 2011/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --
FTS [http://www.fts-soft.com ], a global provider of billing, customer
care and policy control solutions for communications and content service
providers, and Vedicis [http://www.vedicis.com ], the leading software
editor in broadband DPI and policy enforcement solutions, announced today
that they are partnering to deliver a complete Policy Control & Charging
(PCC) solution.
Vedicis will provide its policy enforcement (PCEF) solution, whilst FTS
will deliver its Leap(TM) Policy Control, an online/offline charging and
PCRF solution [http://www.fts-soft.com/category/policy-control ]. The
combined solution will be an integrated end-to-end Policy Control & Charging
offering for mobile and fixed line operators.
As data usage continues to rise service providers' marketing departments
are being pushed to come up with innovative pricing plans that can be
implemented quickly to help manage data volumes, whilst simultaneously
increasing revenues and improving the customer experience. The combined FTS
and Vedicis PCC solution enables the billing and network departments to keep
up to speed with marketing requests, with pre-integrated charging, policy
management and enforcement and subscribers' data. Dynamic policies can be
implemented to correctly identify and classify content such as over the top
applications (OTT), video or gaming, ensuring that the data is correctly
handled, prioritized and charged for.
The new partnership provides a single PCC solution: operators purchase a
pre-integrated package that offers simplicity, fast integration, deployment
and operational set-up, along with cost advantages when compared to
integrating separate PCEF, PCRF and charging solutions. As a result,
operators gain a competitive edge with fast, simple implementation of new
services and improved ROI.
"This is a great partnership for FTS. We have always worked hard to help
marketing teams launch new services quickly, without back-office being a
bottleneck, and integration with Vedicis will add further simplicity and
fast deployment capabilities," said Amos Sivan, CEO, FTS. "This combined PCC
offering will enable operators to better respond to the choices their
customers make with personalized packages."
"The combination of FTS' Leap Policy Control and our Vedicis Policy
Enforcement solution presents an exciting new offering for fixed and mobile
operators," said Theodore Martin Martin, Vedicis CEO. "At Vedicis, we focus
on delivering flexible and efficient open traffic management solutions to
speed new service implementation and control IP data growth. Together, FTS
and Vedicis can now help carriers combine policy enforcement, the policy
rules engine, real-time usage-based charging and the subscribers' data to
create differentiated services quickly and simply."
The joint Policy Control & Charging Solution from Vedicis and FTS will
be able to help operators resolve a number of issues that are currently
affecting the sector, including:
- Enabling innovative cross-selling plans - an example of which may be
to provide quota-based credits for the data used on premium services
- Traffic Management - the PCC solution can implement dynamic policy
rules for bandwidth fair usage and congestion mitigation according to the
user's profile, his financial status, the network status or even the roaming
status
- Providing tiered services - such as offering pricing packages based on
a choice of access speed, download/upload quotas, QoS prioritization,
applications, devices, location or time of day/week according to the
consumer's preference
Both FTS and Vedicis will be participating at the Global Broadband
Traffic Management conference in London (15th-17th November 2011). Vedicis
will be discussing the latest business cases for Traffic Management
Solutions to ensure operators have full flexibility for their initiatives
(15:15pm, 17th November) and FTS will be participating in a panel discussion
on Policy 2.0 enabled services and how they can deliver incremental revenues
for operators (12:40pm, 16th November).
