Albtelecom Signs with Verscom Managed Services
WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Verscom, a leader in Managed Services for IP Voice Networks and Next-Generation Applications, today announced yet another strategic win in EMEA with Albtelecom, the largest public operator in the field of fixed telecommunication services in Albania.
In addition to the ongoing integration of CLASS-5 and CLASS-4 Softswitch solutions to the core of its voice network that was initiated in 2007, Albtelecom is moving forward with the final phase of its next-generation network transformation which will include replacement of its TDM-based legacy international voice interconnect infrastructure. With VoIP interconnections becoming more of a service providers’ choice, and carriers moving away from existing TDM interconnections, these changes will allow Albtelecom to introduce new wholesale interconnect offerings increasing its market share while reducing its operating costs.
“We had been looking for a strategic partner that offers the best, most profitable infrastructure solutions to offer IP Voice Interconnects to the wholesale market as quickly and efficiently as possible while providing the highest levels of quality and security.” said Haluk Unal, Albtelecom Vice General Director. “Outsourcing was our strategy of choice and after a comprehensive due diligence process; we selected Verscom as our long term partner.
