27. Tele2 Customer Profile
Tele2 is the Northern European leading carrier, with exponential growth. A true partner to CommuniGate Systems providing innovative and affordable voice and data products to consumers over next-generation wire line and wireless networks.
Challenge
Required new features for customer retention which their current platform, Openwave, did not provide - as that solution became more focused on wireless devices, it was missing new, innovative messaging features.
Required a solution to better manage and administrate their 5.7 million subscribers as the legacy system was very complex.
Migrate existing accounts and data without interruption of service to customers.
Solution
Selected CGP to provide the suite of messaging solutions.
Implemented a 16x5 Dynamic Cluster solution to host multi-million accounts
True 99.999% guaranteed uptime met the SLA requirements
"We are extremely happy to switch to a more flexible, powerful, and cost effective communication solution,” said Lars Michael Jogbäck, Manager Core Internet & Services, Tele2. “Our customers will certainly benefit from the many additional services CommuniGate Pro has to offer."
