The Prepaid Grapevine is the only interactive meeting place for the prepaid industry. Members share news, opinions and business strategies daily. LOS ANGELES, CA (April 28, 2008) IVR Technologies, a software developer of IP enhanced services and real-time billing solutions, has announced the availability of Talking SIP 3.4. Talking SIP is a fully-integrated application, media, and billing server providing class 4/5 switching, registration, location services and enhanced services to service providers worldwide. IVR says Talking SIP 3.4 adds greater end-user control and new innovative services that drive additional revenue and margin to the service provider’s network. “Talking SIP 3.4 represents a significant development effort in adding new costing and network administration features as well as a very robust PBX and messaging module,” said Barry Sher, VP Business Development, IVR Technologies, Inc. “Through the newly added Voicemail and PBX Module, service providers can now offer their own virtual PBX/MBX services to enterprises and consumers along with a feature rich voice mail system, custom auto-attendant, and/ or audio text system. The new module is designed so that service providers can offer these services on a hosted basis to attract other network operators through white label programs. We have seen margins continue to be eroded in the long distance market and a great way for service providers to re-build their margins is to differentiate themselves from their competition through value added and innovative services that empower the end user and streamline the user experience.” Talking SIP 3.4 is available for immediate download from the IVR Help Portal for all customers who are within a valid support agreement. The optional PBX/Voicemail module is available separately and at an additional cost. Source: IVR Technologies (www.ivr.com) .. e board h Get on the know! Get in t JOIN TODAY, IT’S FREE!
