InnoMedia Employs Digiquant's Internet Management System to Support Continued Growth Abroad
San Jose, Calif. and Atlanta, GA - March 05, 2001 - InnoMedia™, a leading supplier of Internet telephony appliances, business solutions, and services, and Digiquant, a global provider of multi-service management solutions for telecommunications companies and next-generation service providers, announced today that InnoMedia has selected Digiquant's Internet Management System (IMS) as its infrastructure software platform for the management, billing, and customer care of its Voice over IP (VoIP) and Internet gaming-related services.
InnoMedia currently enables customers to enjoy first-rate IP telephony solutions around the globe with its diverse product family and its quality-managed network services. Digiquant's IMS is a multi-service platform used to manage the functions necessary for deploying and managing IP service offerings, including mission-critical processes such as service activation, authentication, and rating, as well as the customer-focused operations of billing and web-based self care. IMS will help InnoMedia continue its expansion into more than 200 countries thanks to a scalable, standards-based distributed architecture that will provide users with superior, innovative VoIP capabilities.
"Digiquant was the obvious choice for InnoMedia because of its highly scalable and flexible service management platform," said Wymond Choy, vice president of strategic business development for InnoMedia. "To provide InnoMedia's growing user base with new and exciting services, the billing and customer care systems we use must deliver the highest possible performance, in keeping with our customers' expectations."
The selection of IMS supports InnoMedia's high-quality InnoSphere network with proven real-time performance. Digiquant's Internet Management System demonstrated in recent benchmark testing that it was capable of handling more than 3,000 VoIP sessions per second in an environment with more than twenty-five million subscribers.
"We are pleased that the IMS platform has been selected to support the geographic expansion, subscriber growth, and call volume increases that InnoMedia can expect as a result of its leading-edge Internet telephony services," said Andreas Schenck, senior vice president and general manager for Digiquant's Americas region. "InnoMedia has effectively combined the cost-efficiency of Internet telephony with the popularity of the highly interactive gaming industry demonstrating the creativity and value-added services that are propelling the growth of the IP services market."
