Sylantro and Leapstone Partner to Provide Carriers With New Options for IP Service Bundling

Posted on: Tuesday, 14 December 2004, 09:00 CST

Sylantro Systems Corporation, the carriers' choice for hosted IP communications services, and Leapstone Systems, a leading provider of intelligent service delivery and content management solutions, today announced a partnership to deliver fully integrated business and consumer VoIP offerings for telecommunications service providers worldwide. Sylantro's application feature server and Leapstone's end-to-end service delivery platform are already deployed together in a large-scale U.S. RBOC network and are currently in trials with other incumbent service providers.

Sylantro Systems is the leading provider of hosted PBX and IP Centrex applications, voice VPN capabilities and consumer broadband applications via the company's carrier-grade feature server. Sylantro's products are successfully deployed around the globe with the widest market distribution in its product class. The Sylantro platform provides the telco-grade scalability, reliability, operability and regulatory compliance required for massively scalable carrier deployments to serve millions of users.

Leapstone provides open, flexible software that lets operators design, package, deploy and manage a broad range of compelling content and services. As a foundation for VoIP service deployment, Leapstone's CCE serviceBROKER optimizes service flexibility and speeds time to market, enabling operators to create differentiated service packages for rapid delivery to their market segments. The CCE serviceBROKER has completed pre-integration interoperability testing with numerous network elements and commercial OSS systems, ensuring that carriers can work with best-in-class elements in their service delivery architectures.

"Sylantro's products are designed to meet the demanding needs of the world's largest and most sophisticated service providers," said Pete Bonee, president and CEO of Sylantro Systems. "As multiple carriers continue to roll out full service VoIP deployments, it is essential to provide solutions that allow them to provide their own differentiated applications. Our interoperability and partnership with Leapstone ensures that Sylantro's service provider customers will enjoy the highest degree of flexibility in terms of new feature activation and seamless, rapid service delivery."

"We are very excited about this partnership," said Rick Orriss, Leapstone's president and CEO. "Leapstone's service brokering software and Sylantro's application feature server provide critical functions that must work hand-in-hand to ensure rapid service introduction, scalability and stable deployment costs. The integrated solution enables service providers to create feature-rich application bundles and define unique customer profiles, resulting in distinctive and targeted service offerings. These offerings are already delivering benefits in a real-world deployment by enabling customers to select hundreds of features to complement their businesses and create a more efficient work environment."
