Metaswitch Forum 2010 -- Metaswitch Networks,
a leading provider of carrier systems and communications software
solutions, today announced that Telecom Argentina, one of the
largest incumbent telecommunications providers in Argentina, has
selected Metaswitch's MetaSphere platform to deliver a
fully-featured SIP Trunking and Hosted PBX service to enterprise
customers.
With almost 20 years serving the Argentinean community, Telecom
provides over 20 million lines of voice, data, Internet and
wireless telecommunication services to all of Buenos Aires and the
northern part of Argentina. A forward thinking service provider,
with both wireline and wireless assets, Telecom has built a strong
reputation since its formation under the privatization of the
previously government-owned network. Keen to maintain its
reputation and profitability, Telecom insists on operating state of
the art, cost-effective networks.
"After evaluating many vendors, we selected the Hosted PBX
Solution from Metaswitch because it includes a wide variety of
advanced services that our business customers can benefit from
today," said Néstor Rejas, SMB marketing manager of Telecom
Argentina. "Our subscribers will now be able to self-manage
services across multiple devices, improve productivity with
auto-attendant features and route calls effectively at any time of
day."
In this hotly contested market, Telecom searched for a vendor
that would enable them to leapfrog the competition with a
combination of broad service offerings and cost-efficient
infrastructure. The Metaswitch solution offered more features than
competing product sets and provided an opportunity for Telecom to
help its business customers reduce the capital expense of key
systems and PBX equipment. Delivering a full suite of both voice
and data services across broadband networks, Telecom satisfies its
customers with a combination of bandwidth efficiency, service
integration and advanced subscriber provisioning and service
management capabilities.
"Our award-winning technology will provide Telecom with new
revenue from a comprehensive array of reliable, next-generation
voice services," said René Méndez, vice president of Latin America
for Metaswitch. "We're excited to serve this valued customer and
are honored that they chose to Make the Call with Metaswitch."
