Globitel, the global provider of advanced telecom solutions, introduced today the “IP Roaming” solution, allows users to make and receive mobile calls while roaming with Voice over IP (VoIP).
The Availability of Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) has been cited as one of the most significant challenges for the traditional telecoms industry. The availability of smart-phones with Apps and mobile broadband has driven consumers to find new and cheaper ways of communicating via cheap VoIP services such as Skype, Fring and Viber over mobile broadband to reduce their voice costs, especially for long distance international calls; accessed from both PCs and smart-phone apps.
Globitel IP Roaming is designed specifically to help mobile operators to counter this challenge by leveraging the VoIP service concept to deliver an integrated service by utilizing their strongest assets and simultaneously converging traditional mobile VAS in a unified mobile broadband experience; adding the kind of value that will promote customer loyalty and increase brand perception.
“Cost savings is the number-one reason most people will want to subscribe to IP Roaming services. Companies or businesses can save big, too- using IP Roaming service, this will help employees stay connected on the go while giving them the flexibility to manage these features right from their desktop” Said Wisam Ammori; Operator Solutions Director.
With Globitel’s IP Roaming, Operators would strengthen their brand identity as leading operator in providing advanced services, and captures a new market segment of subscribers from outside the country, with offering them attractive, low-cost roaming calls via the home network operator. IP Roaming is considered to be a hybrid solution between legacy GSM and next generation IP based networks.
