Nortel
Nortel Managed VoIP Service with Proactive Voice Quality Management
(PVQM) provides round-the-clock IP telephony network operation and management,
along with the industry’s first comprehensive, real-time support for VoIP
quality of service.
For companies already using VoIP, this means predictable costs and
higher-quality service. For those still waiting to make the move, Managed VoIP
Service with PVQM complements Nortel’s simple, easy-to-implement IP telephony
“Ask companies what makes them hesitate to jump into voice over IP and
most will give you the same reasons – voice quality, cost, and lack of skills
to manage the transition,” said Nigel Parnell, vice president, Network Managed
Services, Nortel. “They want help dealing with these issues. They want
Business Made Simple. This service can help make that happen.”
“High voice quality is essential to providing our clients with the
premium level of service they’ve come to expect,” said T. Rajah, chief
information officer for CLSA, a Hong Kong-based brokerage firm. CLSA uses
Nortel’s Communication Server 1000 and Network Managed Services, and recently
ordered Managed VoIP Service with PVQM.
“We are convinced that proactive monitoring and management is the best
approach to achieving high-quality VoIP,” Rajah said. “Nortel has shown us how
outsourcing this unique service can provide significant cost savings over
trying to do it ourselves.”
