ACE*COMM will demonstrate the following solutions:
Revenue Assurance - ACE*COMM's revenue assurance solutions are
designed to recover revenue that would otherwise be lost to service

assure that every billable subscriber transaction is recognized, and
that maximum revenue is realized from each of those events.
Convergent Mediation(TM) - ACE*COMM's Convergent Mediation(TM)
solutions provide an information bridge between service providers'
networks and their back office systems (OSS/BSS). Convergent
Mediation(TM) solutions are designed to meet the data management needs
of wired, wireless, voice, data, and Internet communications
providers. They provide a competitive edge by seamlessly integrating
data from multiple networks, of different generations, and creating an
environment to rapidly introduce new product offerings and/or
subscriber services. Convergent Mediation(TM) further increases
service levels, and creates new opportunities for profitability.
NetPlus(R) EOSS - NetPlus(R) is an advanced enterprise operations
support system (EOSS), designed for enterprise-level communications
networks. Using a single-entry, single-image Oracle(R) database,
NetPlus(R) greatly reduces enterprise voice and data
telecommunications network costs, while enabling smooth and efficient
network operations.
ViewBill - ViewBill, is a comprehensive multilevel product for
managing billing accounts. It dramatically improves interactive
self-care by providing the customer direct control over a full range
of account-related tasks - from finding information to executing
transactions - thereby reducing customer support costs for the service
provider. ViewBill combines Electronic Bill Presentment and Payment
(EBPP), account management, and personalization to create an
integrated, natural and preferred starting point for all customer
service issues.
ACE*COMM personnel will be on hand in Booth # 605 to provide
demonstrations and insights for both service providers and enterprises
on how to reduce operational costs, stop revenue leakage, improve
performance, and easily add new products and services to existing
infrastructure investments. For more information, visit:
