WIT Software has been providing compelling IP based applications and services to mobile operators since 2001. According to Luis Silva, CEO and Founder of WIT Software “mobile operators want to respond to disruptive competitors like Skype and Google Talk. In the current economic climate operators need to start using the internet to transport calls in order to improve their call margins and at the same time provide their customers with lower cost calls. We wanted to provide operators with a VoIP client that allowed them to play to their strengths, in other words a VoIP Client that could offer presence, status, location, video, enhanced voice, messaging, and other network resident features in a manner that is qualitatively superior to the services offered by the internet players. That’s when we decided to call in Vennetics.”
Kieran Dalton, Chairman and Founder of Vennetics stated: “our J-Box Feature Server is a carrier grade application platform that is deployed in the mobile network against either an IMS core or other SIP based infrastructure. The system controls voice, media and messaging traffic as well as providing comprehensive support for real time billing, location and presence features. Amongst the J-Box features that WIT will be using as part of their innovative VoIP Client solution for mobile operators will be:
1. Call Handover: a user can handover a PC based VoIP call to be seamlessly transferred to a standard mobile phone. The Call Handover feature is invoked by simply pressing the icon on the WIT Software VoIP Client.
2. Multi-Ring: allows an end user to configure and control whether an incoming call should cause their VoIP client and mobile phone to ring simultaneously or if they should ring individually.
Commenting on the partnership Dalton went on to say “by integrating WIT Software VoIP, Video and messaging capabilities with Vennetics J-Box functionality we have developed a unique and exciting proposition that we believe will change the face of mobile communications. We’re delighted to be working with the team at WIT software as we share the same passion for innovation and creativity”.
