Tata Communications announces the launch
of its flagship Global SIP Connect service as a white-label solution for
service providers. The SIP trunking offering will enable service providers to
expand their voice services to customers through Tata Communications’ global
network reach and unified communications portfolio without major up-front
investment in building their own solution. In turn, their business customers
will benefit from a new way to transform their voice network with a potential
55% network cost saving.
Due to the growing demand for unified communications, Infonetics forecasts
that 62% of
enterprises are expected to use SIP by 2017 for a portion of their voice
connectivity requirements. Underpinned by Tata
Communications’ global network – with connectivity to over 240 countries and
territories – Global SIP Connect white-label solution empowers service
providers to meet this demand through faster time to market and a reliable,
high quality user experience for their global customers.
Anthony Bartolo, President of
Collaboration and Mobility, Tata Communications, says, “As demand for cloud-based unified
communications continues to soar, SIP trunking is becoming a critical tool for
businesses looking for best in class voice services. Global SIP deployment can
be time consuming and complex to execute due to interoperability and regulatory
challenges and our new white-label offering enables service providers to
overcome these challenges on a global scale while eliminating the huge cost of
building new solutions from scratch.”
Mike
Sapien, Principal Analyst, Ovum Research, says, "Our research shows that
enterprises of all sizes are expanding globally which increases the difficulty
in providing integrated global voice infrastructure to support enterprise
communications and applications. Global SIP services are now a critical
ingredient in creating an IP platform to enable many enterprise applications
including all aspects of enterprise voice and unified communications. There are
very few providers who can cover all major regions of the world with their own
voice network infrastructure so Tata Communications' Global SIP Connect
white-label alternative should be attractive to many providers, integrators,
resellers and large enterprise customers who need
global reach."
Tata Communications’ unified communications portfolio has a
strong roadmap with upcoming additional white labeled services such as Tata
Communications with Skype for Business, InstaCC Global, Jamvee and Click2RTC. Global SIP Connect white-label service
offers a comprehensive portfolio of services including inbound and outbound
international and domestic voice calling, the latest in SIP based full PSTN
replacement, along with International toll free and local number service and
full compatibility with the Microsoft Skype for Business (formerly Lync)
unified communications platform.
