Customer Challenges
Before VoIP Trunking Services
Operational challenges
before transformation:
Public
Switched
Telephone
Network
Separate physical voice and data service
facilities for each site
This translates to:
•
Separate pricing plans/contracts
within region.
•
Management of separate data
network/facilities.
•
Overprovisioning of voice trunks
required for busy hour, since there
is no option to share across
time zones.
•
Limited DR options for voice
services in event of CPE outage.
•
No unified “path” for new applications
like video and conferencing.
