Milton Keynes, 10 March 2008. DIGITALK today announced that eTel Austria, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Telekom Austria TA AG successfully started using the DIGITALK SIP Media Application Server.
   
eTel has provided Voice Prepaid Services on the DIGITALK Multiservice platform since 2000, and will be migrating all DIGITALK applications to the NGN SIP Application Server. eTel plans to optimize its current portfolio by introducing intelligent number services using DIGITALK Service Numbers application.

The next generation DIGITALK Service Numbers application offers both simple number translation services as well as more sophisticated intelligent call routing capabilities all managed by a web self-care interface. Services supported from the DIGITALK MSP can be customised to meet the exacting demands of the business subscriber, enabling service providers to target markets that were previously only possible using expensive and large scale IN solutions.

"eTel's decision to expand the range of services handled by the DIGITALK Platform and to migrate to next generation intelligent networking services for service numbers and prepaid was made easy by DIGITALK's clear roadmap and track record for delivering services rapidly. The Service Numbers application has a strong set of features which has given us great confidence in using DIGITALK," says Ilias Liakopoulos, CTO, eTel Austria.

Mark Ashdown, DIGITALK's Sales and Marketing Director commented: "DIGITALK is delighted to be assisting eTel's value added services. We were up against some well-known competition and this proves that our reputation in this market is going from strength to strength."
