Oracle® Buys Pre-paid Software Assets from eServGlobal
Oracle® Buys Pre-paid Software Assets from eServGlobalOracle to Deliver Scalable Carrier-Grade Pre-paid Solution Based on Open, Flexible IT-based Platform
Redwood Shores, Calif. ? May 26, 2010 News Facts Oracle has agreed to acquire certain pre-paid assets of eServGlobal, a provider of advanced IT-based, pre-paid charging solutions for the communications industry. eServGlobal?s Universal Service Platform (USP), includes a pre-paid charging application, a network-services platform and a messaging gateway. The ChargingMax, NumberMax, uVOMS, MessageMax, PromoMax Express and Social Relationship Management software currently supports more than 25 tier-one customers including the world?s largest IT-based installation of pre-paid services. The combination of Oracle Communications Billing and Revenue Management and the USP applications is expected to accelerate the shift from network- to IT-based pre-paid systems by providing the first convergent, open IT-based platform from a leading business software and hardware systems company. Customers are expected to benefit from traditional carrier-grade, pre-paid service authorization with IT-grade flexibility that supports any service or network, is easier to deploy and maintain and delivers an overall lower total cost of ownership. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of this year. Supporting Quote ?The majority of mobile phone users worldwide use pre-paid plans, and that number is growing exponentially. Oracle Communications applications combined with the pre-paid software assets from eServGlobal will provide our customers with highly available and scalable carrier-grade, pre-paid software on an open, convergent platform. This will enable our customers to deliver traditional pre-paid voice services and easily introduce hybrid pre-paid and post-paid plans with targeted pricing, promotions and service bundles that include voice, data and network services,? said Liam Maxwell, vice president of products, Oracle Communications.
