Competitive operators and CLECs' strength has been in serving small and medium-size businesses with voice and data services. This success has been most evident with the deployment of TDM-based integrated access services. BroadSoft is helping competitive operators focus on their core strength of selling to SMEs by migrating to an IP-based solution.

To extend operations into IP-based integrated access, competitive operators are deploying the BroadWorks platform for its IP Business Trunking application. This allows a competitive operator to replicate a small business' existing services while extending the useful life of premise-based equipment.

Competitive operators are utilizing this base of IP business trunking customers to up-sell enhanced features and functionality as overlay capabilities. Providing business customers with a cost effective solution through IP business trunking and exposing them to enhanced features through an overlay approach provides operators with a migration path to transition businesses to a fully Hosted PBX or IP Centrex solution when the customer is ready to make the move to a complete end-to-end IP solution. A phased migration allows customers to reap the cost advantages of VoIP while becoming comfortable with the capabilities IP can offer. As a single complete platform, BroadWorks also allows competitive operators to take a phased approach in deploying and marketing new IP services.

Testimonials

"BroadSoft is a scalable, robust and redundant system that gives us a clear advantage over our competition. It has been a great platform for us to develop customized applications for both automated provisioning and for services that are tailored to our customer's needs. In particular, we were able to develop our unique VOX3 service with a completely different user interface and have the BroadWorks feature set seamlessly integrate using their open standards service creation functionality. After considering all the alternatives, BroadSoft was clearly the best choice."
