Three Leading European CSPs to launch UCC Products based on ECT Low Code

After the successful completion of rapid proofs of concept, these communications service providers (CSPs) are introducing their own UCC products to differentiate their portfolios, to improve subscriber retention and to achieve higher margins.

• One CSP wanted to expand their existing and already successful enterprise services portfolio to satisfy an increasing SoHo and SME demand for a secure telecoms solution for work-from-home.

• The second CSP was looking to add a collaboration app to their VPBX product without migration from the current legacy platform.

• The third CSP wanted to replace the legacy softphone of their current VPBX product with an app providing higher value added.

• With these three new contracts, there will be an additional one million subscribers using UCC/workstream collaboration products based on ECT Telecoms Low Code.

Munich, February 7th, 2022 European Computer Telecoms AG (ECT), provider of Telecoms Low Code and agile co-development dedicated to better business outcomes for CSPs and their customers, announces that three leading European carriers will launch individualized unified communications and collaboration (UCC) products based on ECT’s Telecoms Low Code, Packaged Business Capabilities and Ready-to-Use Apps.

One of these CSPs, an ECT client for more than two decades, wanted to expand their already successful enterprise portfolio after receiving requests from their customers for an individualized work-from-home solution provided from within the secure telecoms network. The new product, which targets SoHo and SME segments, is expected to provide substantial high-margin revenue. It will also further differentiate this CSP’s offering from that of the competitors, which is key to motivating businesses to move to the CSP. With existing business customers, the CSP anticipates that the new app will further increase subscriber retention of their ECT-based enterprise services which already have the highest retention among all the CSP’s broadband products.

The second CSP is launching its own UCC product to add a collaboration layer to their existing third-party VPBX product. This CSP had a non-ECT legacy solution without UCC capabilities or a mobile app and was unable to change or augment its features via the original vendor. They were looking for alternatives to differentiate and innovate without having to move immediately from the legacy platform. By integrating their test network with an ECT deployment in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud, the CSP performed a proof of concept (PoC) in just two weeks before making their decision.

The third CSP has a VPBX solution from ECT. This customer wanted to replace a simple softphone and add more value via UCC and workstream collaboration features. After a quick PoC of ECT’s Ready-to-Use App for UCC, called Workspace, they decided to integrate a new UCC module into the existing VPBX as well as launch a new, standalone UCC product.

In general, a CSP can test ECT’s Telecoms Low Code, Ready-to-Use Apps and Packaged Business Capabilities by connecting their test network to an ECT deployment in AWS. Such rapid PoCs turned out to be decisive in these three cases, as they allowed the CSPs not only to evaluate technical details but also to include decision makers and even end customers in fit-for-purpose testing. By doing so, they made sure they had the right solution for their respective networks and for their use cases all in time to satisfy the growing demand for individualized home-office solutions.

All three CSPs will continue reselling OTT products for UCC, although these are more “a box to tick” than a differentiator. However, the new individualized UCC products based on ECT Telecoms Low Code are expected to add value and higher margins to their enterprise services portfolios. Furthermore, these CSP-led UCC products will allow end users to keep all personal data safely secured in the regulated CSP network and thus within national borders while taking advantage of native fixed-mobile convergence, a feature often missing in OTT solutions.

With these three new contracts, ECT expects to gain short-term another one million subscribers using UCC/workstream collaboration products based on ECT Telecoms Low Code and the Ready-to-Use App, Workspace.

About Workspace, ECT’s Read-to-Use App for Individualized Unified Communications and Collaboration Products:

Workspace is one of ECT’s Ready-to-Use Apps. With Workspace as a basis, CSPs can compose their own individualized UCC product. It encompasses fully defined features for a modern cloud phone system, workstream collaboration, and HD video and audio meetings. New capabilities and integrations from third-party systems and end-customer business systems can be quickly added using ECT’s Telecoms Low Code. This allows CSPs to individualize their services according to their needs and their customers’ needs. Click here to learn more about Workspace.

Techniques to Improve Your Results Immediately through Agile Project Management Software

The latest project management software systems have brought the biggest transformation in the project management industry. Now, projects are assigned, reviewed, and completed faster and more efficiently than ever before. Agile project management is one such technique that focuses on breaking a project into different phases so that it gets easier for both employees and the manager to complete tasks in a timely manner and as required.

How Does Agile Management Work?

The technique involves seamless coordination between all departments and constant improvement at every step of the project. The goal is to reduce the workload of the employees by making projects easier. They no longer need to run back and forth between different departments for instructions, nor do they need to call the supervisor to confirm the delivery date.

The project management tools can be used to assign tasks to each employee, giving them all the instructions they need for execution in one place. Every member of the team will have access to this system so that they can suggest changes, make improvements, schedule a deadline, mark the project complete, or reassign tasks to other employees.

Here’s how you can get better results with agile project management software.

Process-based Project Management

Once you get the project’s outline, you have to complete the project following the company’s primary principles that are in line with the vision and mission statement. That’s what this agile-based project management technique is about.

It focuses on the company’s values and mission so that the employees can execute different projects in a way that benefits their organization. This technique helps you arrive at an outcome that your investors, associates, and clients will appreciate.

Traditional Approach

It works for all sizes of companies. The traditional project management technique is a flexible, direct, and effective strategy for businesses that rely on their project manager’s judgment. The technique is simple. You assign a task to each employee and give them a deadline with the necessary instructions on how to complete the project. The project manager reviews the work and compares it with what was discussed in the planning stage. The manager will decide if the

project is in accordance with the planned work, where can the employee improve, or what corrections can make the final task better.

Critical Chain Project Management

This one is a budget-based project management technique. For projects with a tight budget, a critical chain project management approach is often used to set a budget.

The managers then pay special attention to the workforce they hire, tools used for the project, and the best techniques for accomplishing the task. The goal is to complete the project within the budget and without compromising on the quality of the task.

Rational Unified Process (RUP)

We mostly prioritize the manager’s feedback on the employee’s work. The project is adjusted according to the manager’s feedback, as their judgment is given utmost importance. However, the final feedback is from the customer.

They are going to use your products so it has to be in line with their expectations and how they prefer it. That’s what the Rational Unified Process, developed by IBM, is used for. It focuses on the customers’ feedback on the project and making changes to the product so that it matches the client’s requirements.

These were the top techniques that can ensure better project management and the best results. Agile project management includes a series of methods that make project management easier and smoother for employees. The above-listed methods were the best for people looking for smart and efficient ways to handle projects.
