ST. LOUIS -- Amdocs (NYSE: DOX), the leading provider of customer experience systems and services, today announced the release of the cloud-based Amdocs Unified Communications solution, which brings together messaging services, video and voice over IP (VoIP) calling, inside a service provider-branded app. With the Amdocs Unified Communications solution, service providers can quickly launch services to compete with over-the-top (OTT) offerings, strengthening their relationship with customers and allowing them to better monetize the opportunity.“Until now, the over-the-top players have led the mobile video, messaging and VoIP communications market, eroding service providers’ revenues and undermining the relationship with their customers on basic communication services,” said Maribel Lopez, principal analyst at Lopez Research LLC. “Service providers have the opportunity to strengthen their ownership of voice calls to cover VoIP and video conferencing with their own branded solution. By providing a unified launch pad for all their customers’ communications, across multiple platforms and media, service providers can increase their customer loyalty.”Amdocs Ltd.
