Frisco, TX, June 19, 2013– GENBAND, a leading developer of multimedia and cloud communications solutions, today announced that Welcome Italia, a leading telecommunications provider for Italy’s enterprise market, has selected GENBAND’s Smart Networking solutions to transform its network to all IP architecture. GENBAND is upgrading the network operator’s TDM and first-generation IP switches to GENBAND’s IMSLiTE™ solution to increase the capacity of Welcome Italia’s growing network and empower the operator to deliver enhanced multimedia communications and SIP Business Trunking services to its enterprise customers.
“We have significantly simplified and improved the user experience for our business customers by utilizing GENBAND’s unmatched expertise in IP transformation and enhanced multimedia communications,” said Stefano Luisotti, CEO of Welcome Italia. “GENBAND’s Smart Networking solutions provide the scalability to ensure that we are able to meet current and future customer and market growth requirements.”
By incorporating GENBAND’s EXPERiUS™ application server and CONTiNUUM™ C20 Call Session Controller on the all-IP GENiUS™ platform, GENBAND offers Welcome Italia an IMS-compliant, highly scalable network transformation solution that delivers new revenue enablers while significantly reducing total cost of ownership. GENBAND is a leader in Unified Communications (UC) and its EXPERiUS solution is one of the world’s most widely-deployed voice and multimedia UC platforms, providing carrier-class, secure and highly scalable solutions that resolve challenges facing enterprises in today’s multi-faceted IP communications environment.
