MERA Systems has announced that its VoIP Transit Softswitch II (MVTS II) has been deployed by U.S.-based VoIP provider, New World Brands (NWB).

 

As a well-known wholesaler of VoIP softswitches and session controllers for managing IP communication, MERA Systems (News - Alert) offered a cost-effective solution for NWB that would provide an excellent switching capability and a wide range of billing features to handle the increased traffic transit.

 

After testing numerous brands, NWB selected MERA Systems’ flagship product MVTS II. This softswitch has been strategically designed to increase the efficiency of VoIP traffic management on large-scale networks.

 

“A softswitch is the core element of a VoIP network, and we thoroughly searched the market for a reliable switching system,” said Noah Kamrat, chief technology officer of NWB. “When we eventually decided on MVTS II, we realized that it was exactly the solution we needed. Its flexible routing policies enable us to implement a wider range of routing scenarios, based on cost, quality, information from ENUM registries, Inter/Intrastate routing options, route capacity, gateway and route load, and many other parameters.”

 

The MVTS II billing abilities (the import of rate plans and invoicing of peering partners) saves NWB the expense of deploying third-party billing applications. In addition, the CDR re-rating feature helps the company avoid making mistakes caused by rate changes. NWB also deeply benefits from the product’s codec conversion function. It ensures superior quality of service and seamless connectivity with the company’s partner and corporate networks.

 

“It is my strongest belief that comprehensive customer support is as important as the product quality. I am glad that MERA Systems has the same vision: its technical support team is eager to help and is available 24 hours a day 7 days a week to give professional and effective guidance,” adds Kamrat. “We are pleased to cooperate with such a fast developing and forward-looking VoIP service provider as New World Brands," comments Konstantin Nikashov, CEO of MERA Systems.

 

“Our solution has allowed NWB to adopt an integral approach to the management of its VoIP traffic flows. The deployment of MVTS II has contributed to the company’s continuous success and growth, and we are ready to supply any upgrades as the NWB network further expands,” he explains.
