Business Wire
Comverse today announced that 3 Hong Kong, the mobile operation
of Hutchison Telecommunications (Hong Kong) Limited (�Hutchison
Telecom Hong Kong�) and the city�s 3G leader, has launched Hong
Kong�s first visual voicemail service.
Powered by Comverse�s Visual Voicemail, the operator�s users now
can enjoy a dramatically enhanced visual voicemail experience,
compared to conventional voicemail. Instead of dialing in for voice
messages, users can see information about each voicemail in a
message inbox, such as sender, time of call and message length and
then click and listen to any message. Users also can delete and
reply to any message.
�Being the first operator in our market to provide visual
voicemail on the iPhone3G extends our string of market firsts,
which also includes launching the city�s first 3G network,� said
Amy Lung, Chief Operating Officer � Mobile of Hutchison Telecom
Hong Kong. �Comverse, the global market leader in visual voicemail,
has supported us to bring a feature-rich solution to market quickly
with satisfactory results. The user feedback has been strongly
positive.�
Visual Voicemail is part of the Comverse Voice HUB, a single
platform for multiple voice-related services, such as
next-generation voicemail, ringback tones, and call completion.
Operators can reap cost savings from the Voice HUB�s unified
platform because it reuses major components and takes advantage of
centralized operation, maintenance and provisioning.
�Fast becoming the next-generation voicemail standard around the
world, visual voicemail has huge mass market potential,� said Urban
Gillstrom, Group President of Global Sales at Comverse, the world's
leading supplier of software and systems enabling value-added
messaging and content services, converged billing and active
customer management, and IP communications.
�Operators welcome the boost in user satisfaction,� he said, �as
well as the additional revenues generated through increased
voicemail usage and premium service positioning.�
