To bring VoIP to thousands of business and homes in the US and Latin America, Pegaso Broadband, a wholly owned subsidiary of Grupo Pegaso, turned to Alianza (News - Alert) Inc. for their IP Telephony PowerPlatform.

 

With the PowerPlatform, Alianza's hosted, fully-integrated IP-based platform for delivering Unified Communications (News - Alert) Applications like, VoIP, hosted PBX, IVR, integrated messaging, conferencing, and more via SaaS (News - Alert), it is possible for broadband providers to quickly and cost effectively launch private-labeled solutions without the need to invest in expensive infrastructure, human resources or development and maintenance.

"With Alianza's PowerPlatform we will be able to launch value-added applications including VoIP, hosted PBX (News - Alert), IVR, integrated messaging, and much more, under our own brand in less than 30 days. The SaaS pricing model reduced our capital expenditures to zero, and will reduce our future operating expenses considerably. The fact that Alianza has a physical presence in the U.S. and Mexico was also important to us as we expect to expand considerably in both markets," commented Alejandro Gonzalez Villatoro, VoIP Manager for Pegaso Broadband

 

The fully customizable PowerPlatform includes a combination of "components required to offer advanced IP telephony services to residential and business customers" including:  Soft Switch,  Session Border Controller, Carrier Interface, Virtual PBX, Billing System, and Hardware Provisioning Interface as well as two web-based management portals: the Account Management Portal (AMP), so customers can manage their own accounts and retrieve valuable reports and information, and the Tools and Administrative Center (ATAC), a back-office management system for the Service Provider.

 

Earlier this month, Alianza announced the general availability of the PowerPlatform solution, specifically targeting the Latin American market.

 

The company also opened regional offices in Mexico City, Argentina, and Singapore to better service both their English and Spanish-speaking markets.
