AllCompass Migrates Network to VoIP Technology using PhoenixSoft’s Cirrus Softswitch

PhoenixSoft customer upgrades legacy platform to enhance network capabilities
 

Phoenix, Arizona…June 11, 2008...PhoenixSoft, Inc., a pioneering provider of next-generation communications platforms for converged networks, announced today that AllCompass Communications Inc. has upgraded its legacy switching platform to PhoenixSoft’s new Cirrus Softswitch solution.  AllCompass provides a variety of pre-paid calling cards that allow consumers to make easy and inexpensive calls worldwide from any phone. 

Prior to the upgrade, AllCompass operated a 20,000-port network consisting of PhoenixSoft’s legacy CMS switch and a few smaller NACT switches.   AllCompass selected PhoenixSoft’s new Cirrus Softswitch to integrate the multiple platforms and migrate to advanced, yet low-cost, VoIP applications.  The Cirrus Softswitch allows service providers to add numerous capabilities that positively affect business and network operations.  For example, providers benefit from increased revenue potential through new features, as well as decreased costs through simpler, more efficient network architectures. 

“We’ve been using PhoenixSoft switching solutions for three years now and are very satisfied with the quality and reliability of the new Cirrus softswitch,” said CEO of Allcompass, Jay Kim. “With network technologies moving to VoIP, we’re especially happy PhoenixSoft developed a viable migration path for us.  The Cirrus Softswitch easily upgraded our legacy network.  We can now take advantage of new, high quality VoIP routes and eliminate many costly components within our network.  In addition, the upgrade investment allows us to offer more competitive pricing with five times the capacity to accommodate our increased traffic,” continued Jay Kim, CEO.

“Our goal is always to develop long-term partnerships with our customers,” said Paul Amick, PhoenixSoft’s co-founder. “To do this, we must continually develop technologies that address current network issues and bring real value to our customers’ business models at the same time.

“Providing an easy migration path for AllCompass that reduced component requirements yet capitalized on their previous network investments was very important to us,” continued Amick.  “With Cirrus, we’re able to migrate not only our customers operating legacy PhoenixSoft switches, but all service providers with legacy networks.   We’re confident the feature-rich Cirrus Softswitch will greatly impact AllCompass and its customers and we look forward to serving their switching requirements well into the future.”
