Sweden's Largest Cable Provider Taps Suite of Service-Centric
Solutions to Speed Time-to-Market for new Service Offerings
InfoVista (NASDAQ: IVTA; Compartment C of Eurolist by Euronext -
ISIN Code: FR0004031649), the leading service-centric performance
management software company, today announced that Com Hem AB has
deployed the InfoVista suite of solutions to ensure quality of service
as it transitions to a triple-play service provider model. Com Hem
selected InfoVista as its end-to-end performance management platform
to expedite expansion of the company's broadband network including
voice over IP (VOIP) services.
Known as "triple play," the delivery of voice (VoIP), video
(Internet Protocol Television - IPTV) and data services over a single
broadband network is the wave of the future for both cable companies
and telecommunications service providers as consumers increasingly
demand bundled services from a single provider. The race to deliver
new services across converged networks will determine the livelihood
of individual providers and the cable and telecommunications
industries more generally. Performance management technology solutions
are taking center stage in the triple-play rollout for their ability
to ensure that consumers experience high-quality service from the
outset.
As Sweden's largest cable TV provider with over 1.4 million
subscribers, and one of Europe's largest cable operators, Com Hem is
committed to providing increased value to its large customer base by
expanding the services it delivers to the home.
"InfoVista understands the high demands of the market and the
pressure the triple-play places on leading communications companies to
speed time-to-market with high quality services," said Martin Kull,
CTO, Com Hem. "A service-centric approach and cross-silo visibility
gives us the ability to maximize utilization of our network,
effectively plan for growth and seamlessly introduce innovative
services that help maintain our leadership position in this
competitive market."
After careful review, Com Hem determined InfoVista offered the
only end-to-end performance management solution to support its
evolution to a multi-service provider. InfoVista's comprehensive
solution provided the scalability and flexibility Com Hem required to
support the rapid growth of its high-capacity broadband customer base
and new IP telephony services. InfoVista's service-centric approach,
including real-time and historical performance reporting and proactive
capacity planning, will help Com Hem maintain quality of service and
manage operating costs while scaling its network infrastructure to
support new services and customers.
Com Hem relies on InfoVista's uniquely adaptive and real-time
technology platform to maintain, analyze and trouble-shoot its growing
infrastructure in order to lower the costs for preventative
maintenance and enhance customer service levels. In addition,
InfoVista's suite of management solutions including VistaInsight for
Networks, VistaInsight for IP VPN, VistaInsight for Servers and
VistaInsight for IP Telephony ensures Com Hem can streamline the
introduction of new services. The solution has been implemented by
Teleca OSS AB, an international IT services company and InfoVista's
systems integration partner in the region.
"As competition increases, providers are keenly aware that adding
additional services will increase customer retention and overall
market share, provided quality of service is maintained," said Julien
Dahan, InfoVista's senior vice president, EMEA. "InfoVista is
committed to helping service providers like Com Hem realize this
transformation while managing bottom line costs."
