CommunicAsia 2010: A Video Interview on the Metaswitch Service Broker

From CommunicAsia 2010 show floor, Joseph Lo, Vice President Asia and Japan, Service Broker Division of Metaswitch Networks, speaks about the key features and benefits of Metaswitch Service Broker.

Today in Asia Pacific, we find that the majority of telecom operators are facing the same problems. Metaswitch Networks has dealings with major operators from all over the world like O2, Vodafone, AT&T, Verizon, etc. and from our conversations with them, we understand that they are all facing the same problems.

Firstly in a difficult time, such as the economic crisis last year, they need to find ways to reduce their CAPEX spending while coping with ever evolving new networks. They need to be able to make faster introduction of new applications to their new networks, so that they can get faster returns on their investment. And when they invest their dollar, telecom operators want to be able to recuperate their investment and ensure that their investment will ride along with the evolution of their networks.

This is the beauty of service broker because we help them to make faster introduction to the marketplace. On average, introducing a new service with service broker takes about three months, whereas traditional solutions usually take between nine to twelve months. Additionally, we have about 60% saving on CAPEX spending and Service Broker also ensures them that they are future proof. Meaning that they can hook up to future networks as they evolve from 3G to LTE, Wimax, to 4G; who knows what other new networks you will have in the future.
