Systems Integration Expertise Makes Live Converged Services Demo
Possible at Spring VON Conference
tekVizion to Show Integrated Services for Commercial, Residential,
Enterprise Markets
RICHARDSON, TX (March 01, 2005) – tekVizion™
PVS, Inc., the new standard for systems integration, announced
today it will be demonstrating multiple converged services live
during 2005 Spring VON, March 7-10 in San Jose, CA.
The demonstrations will take place at the tekVizion booth, No.
307.
“Take away all the VoIP hype, and what network operators
really want is billable integrated services they can take to market
quickly and cost-effectively, knowing that their converged networks
are still reliable,” said Terri Griffin, tekVizion president.
“Achieving this isn’t simply a matter of adding VoIP
equipment or software to the network. It takes in-depth systems
integration expertise to transform technology into revenue-generating
converged services.”
tekVizion is using its core capabilities and expertise in designing,
integrating, and testing multi-vendor, next generation solutions
to demonstrate innovative service bundles for enterprise, commercial,
and residential markets.
Below are the service bundles tekVizion will be demonstrating
at the show.
- Enterprise Service Bundle for Businesses
- Hosted IP Centrex services
- E! Alert provides an IT manager with a faster,
more efficient way to let enterprise workers know about
service outages or potential threats such as an email virus.
Workers use a custom portal to indicate how they would like
to be contacted in the case of an E! Alert, based on the
severity of the alert.
- Personal Assistant is a Find-Me/Follow-Me application
that provides call screening by intercepting calls and prompting
the user to record their name and nature of their call.
In addition to the call treatment options traditionally
supported by Find-Me/Follow-Me, Personal Assistant also
allows the subscriber to record and send a personal voice
message back to the caller in real time.
- Location-Based Routing, integrated with Personal
Assistant, allows users to dynamically change how their
calls are routed to them based on their physical location
within the enterprise.
- A user friendly, custom portal developed by tekVizion
will be used to provision and control all of these services
including IP Centrex, E! Alert, Personal Assistant and Location
Based Routing.
- Residential Service Bundle for Families
- Hosted Residential VoIP
- Coaches List gives a coach or parents the ability
to define and manage a special list of contacts for the
team. In the event of foul weather or other schedule changes,
the coach simply accesses the application and records the
message which is then sent to individuals via their preferred
method such as a phone call, email or SMS.
- With Teen Talk Time Plus parents can control their
teenager’s phone, Internet usage and video privileges,
including setting access times or temporarily disabling
one or more services. The service also allows parents to
control and review Video on Demand purchases.
- A user friendly, custom portal developed by tekVizion
will be used to provision and control all of these services.
- Commercial Service Bundle for Retail
- With Find a Specialist customers use an in-store,
touch-screen kiosk to locate remote specialists to answer
their product questions. This function is controlled via
an ACD application server, and an IP-based video call is
used to allow face-to-face communications between the customer
and the off-site specialist.
- The retail kiosk can also be used to access product information
such as specifications from the manufacturer. During the
video call between the remote specialist and the customer,
the specialist can “push” this information to
be displayed on the kiosk.
“The technology and products are available right now to
develop and deploy any or all of these next-gen services,”
Griffin added. “Service providers are often held back by
the complexity of integration, interoperability, and customization
of new or existing services. This is where tekVizion can help
service providers overcome the technical challenges of bringing
new services to market.”
