    ECT Telecoms claims its TLC grabbed a million subscribers for mobile operators

    -

    You take the high risk-road, they’ll take the low code and the CSP will be in profit before you – service provider ECT tells telcos

    Munich-based European Computer Telecoms AG (ECT), claims it has invented a system for mobile operators that enables them to develop new business systems and consumer services at hyperscale speed but without the hidden costs and trust issues of dealing with the cloud operators.

    Going low code, down in app-a-telco

    It claims the Telecoms Low Code (TLC) system is so invigorating that three of Europe’s top mobile operators have used it to breathe life into old systems or build entirely news business platform for their customers. This has given them more control over their own destiny, created “high margin revenue” and attracted a total of a million new subscribers.

    Build it yourself, keep the profits

    Now three top European telcos are to launch personalised unified communications and collaboration (UCC) offerings to customers. All built their offering with TLC’s instant business systems and office-ready apps. “With these three new contracts, there will be an additional 1 million subscribers using UCC/workstream collaboration products based on ECT Telecoms Low Code,” ECT said in a statement.

    You can’t beat home coding

    One mobile operator has built a personalised system to help enterprise employees work from home more efficiently and safely. ECT’s new system is designed to achieve the same result for small to medium sized businesses. This system could help mobile operators earn “substantial high-margin revenue,” claims ECT. 

    The code of the appsters

    “It will also further differentiate this mobile operator’s offering from that of the competitors, which is key to motivating businesses to move to it,” said an ECT release. The new app will help with subscriber retention, it says. According to ECT, the mobile operator in question now has the highest retention rates among all the CSP’s broadband products. The company, which has not been named, could be Telekom Deutschland.

    Now CSPs can fine tune services

    Another mobile operator is launching its own UCC product to improve the collaboration among business users by applying some of their one code to a third-party virtual private branch exchange (VPBX) product. The more flexible and versatile form of managed collaboration wasn’t possible with the original system but the ECT’s low coding had quickly invigorated the legacy system.

    Mobile operators can develop their own systems quickly, without ripping out their core and offering it to the hyperscalers, according to ECT. “By integrating their test network with an ECT deployment in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud, the CSP performed a proof of concept in just two weeks before making their decision,” claims ECT.

    It works like a stream

    Another mobile operator uses its ECT-built VPBX to create better ‘workstream collaboration’ features for a system it markets as Workspace. The operator now runs this tool as a standalone product. These three in-house built systems prove that mobile operators can built their own systems quickly in reaction to events. 

    Sovereignty issue looms

    One German mobile operator was able to quickly code a system that allows end users to keep all personal data safely secured in the regulated CSP network, which keeps it in line with new data sovereignty compliance obligations that operators need to meet.

    “We collaborate with mobile network operators long-term and continuously, responding agilely to new and changing use cases, requests from individual customers, and emerging opportunities,” said ECT in a statement.
