Amdocs Announces Offerings that Enable Service Providers to Monetize Cloud Services and Benefit from Cloud Efficiencies
Amdocs' unique business model -- comprising products, services and operations -- supports service providers' differing cloud strategies
BARCELONA, Spain, Feb. 25, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- At Mobile World Congress 2013, Amdocs (NYSE: DOX), the leading provider of customer experience systems and services, today announced its broad range of cloud offerings. Consisting of a comprehensive array of cloud-based products, cloud-enablement solutions and managed services operations, Amdocs' cloud offerings enable service providers to quickly introduce cloud services, support the end-to-end enablement of their cloud ecosystems, and realize operational efficiencies.

Amdocs' cloud offerings directly address service providers' imperatives for success in the cloud era: first, by helping them to rapidly introduce new revenue streams such as mobile payments; second, by enabling them to optimize profits by offering services such as fast partner on-boarding and bundling capabilities to the lucrative small- and medium-sized business (SMB) market; and third, by leveraging cloud technologies (such as virtualization) to reduce costs.
Amdocs' cloud offerings:
-- Cloud-based solutions: Amdocs offers service providers innovative
cloud-based solutions that allow them to quickly generate new revenues
in key areas including mobile virtual network operators/enablers (MVNO /
MVNE), connected home, machine-to-machine (M2M), and mobile payments
-- Cloud enablement: service providers are looking to leverage their cloud
ecosystems to provide solutions for high growth segments such as SMB.
Amdocs provides various BSS (business support systems) solutions to help
service providers enable these ecosystems -- from supporting fast
partner on-boarding, flexible service creation, new monetization models
and providing customer care to innovative "one-stop" bundles that
combine communication services with cloud-based applications and
services
-- Private cloud services: for service providers who want to take advantage
of cloud technologies to improve operational efficiency and reduce
costs, Amdocs' global managed services business provides end-to-end
cloud management and operations. Operational models include a virtual
private cloud based on a fully virtualized environment including the
latest Amdocs CES 9 release, which eliminates the need to buy, build and
manage infrastructure and a managed private cloud where Amdocs provides
end-to-end management of the service provider's private cloud on the
service provider's premises. These private cloud services offer both
cost efficiencies and operational excellence
"Service providers have very quickly come to realize that cloud-based services can be a long-term growth engine in the face of declining voice revenues," said Rebecca Prudhomme, vice president for product and solutions marketing at Amdocs. "The benefits are threefold: lower costs, ability to deliver innovative services and bundles, and realize new revenues. But they're also finding that the cloud is more complicated than it looks from the outside - and that getting it right means having a partner who can provide a broad range of enablement and point solutions as well as operational models."
"Amdocs cloud offerings support service providers, whatever their cloud strategy. Our cloud-based, point solutions and cloud-enablement capabilities allow service providers to accelerate innovation and maximize profitability, while our private cloud deployments allow service providers to benefit from both cost efficiencies and operational excellence."
