Bashcell Opts for Convergent Solution from CBOSS

Bashcell, a Bashkir telecommunication company, has signed a contract for supply, implementation, and technical support of the end-to-end convergent IT solution from CBOSS Corporation.

The history of cooperation between the companies dates back to 2002, when Bashcell deployed the CBOSSbcc Billing and Customer Care system in its PSTN and DAMPS networks. At that time, the company's GSM network was supported by a billing solution from another well-known software developer. The simultaneous use of two systems turned out economically ineffective especially at the time of expansion and dynamic growth of the subscriber base. Bashcell needed an end-to-end convergent solution that would allow operation costs reduction and meet growing market requirements. While in operation, CBOSSbcc demonstrated unparalleled reliability and convenience, which convinced Bashcell to choose the convergent industrial solution from CBOSS.

When the project is implemented, Bashcell will be able to provide GSM, DAMPS, PSTN, and Internet services based on a single comprehensive IT solution. Giving Bashcell unbeatable competitive advantages, CBOSS will replace the legacy GSM billing system fast and without service interruption.

The CBOSS product range to be deployed by Bashcell includes the automatic customer care system CBOSSacc, Internet customer service CBOSSics, scalable Internet platform CBOSSip, prepaid billing system CBOSSprepaid, short message service center CBOSSsms, multimedia messaging system CBOSSmms, USSD center CBOSSussd, mediation system CBOSSmdDrive and many others. Under the contract, CBOSS will also deliver the whole spectrum of professional services.

The advanced functionality, universality, flexibility, and scalability of the CBOSS products have already won a stable market share for Bashcell in the region. The CBOSS convergent solution will allow the company to achieve the highest possible efficiency in the online management of the telecommunications infrastructure and to provide the whole range of services including Internet access. Moreover, using the CBOSS bonus management and content management systems, Bashcell will easily increase customer loyalty and attract new subscribers receiving even greater competitive advantages.

"Working with CBOSS, we have experienced highest reliability of their solutions and perfect quality of their technical support", said Svetlana Saprina, General Director at Bashcell. "Implementing the new convergent CBOSS solution brings great opportunities for business development, subscriber base growth, and service portfolio expansion".

The new phase in cooperation between Bashcell and CBOSS has once again proven that the hallmark high quality of CBOSS' products and services is the right choice for telecommunications companies focused on business development, maximum performance, and successful competition on the market.
