o Groupwide Deployment of Roamware Solutions Assures Consistent, High Quality of Service for International Roamers
Orascom Telecom Holding S.A.E. ("Orascom Telecom"), the leading provider of mobile telephony services in the Middle East North Africa (MENA) and South Asia, and Roamware, the global leader in roaming and mobile media solutions, announced today that they have successfully deployed a suite of roaming solutions in several Orascom Telecom subsidiaries in North Africa.
The solutions including Roamware's Virtual Home Environment (VHE) suite and Traffic Management solutions assures the highest quality of service for roamers into these networks, and for Orascom Telecom's subscribers who travel overseas.
"We are delighted to partner with Roamware to deliver high-value services to inbound roamers and to our subscribers who travel overseas," said Hany Riad, Commercial Product Development Senior Manager, for the Orascom Group. "Roamware's VHE suite of products has allowed us to deliver a seamless experience to inbound roamers. Call completion rates have increased significantly, leading to increased customer satisfaction and incremental revenues for our group properties. We have also deployed Roamware's Traffic Management suite in all our properties because it enables us to ensure that our subscribers roam on the networks that deliver high quality service and a range of services when they travel overseas."
"We feel very privileged that the Orascom Group chose Roamware's VHE and Traffic Management suites for all their properties in the MENA region. These products have been deployed in more than 100 mobile networks around the world, and it is estimated that they generate hundreds of millions of dollars in incremental revenues for these operators. We are confident that they will deliver similar value for the Orascom Group properties," said Bassam Madi, Vice President and General Manager of the MENA Region, at Roamware. "We are also very excited about the prospect of working closely with the Orascom Group on new product areas."
