A developer of innovative carrier-class UCaaS solutions, ioTRAN, will use the Talking Platforms North America network footprint to implement its cloud-based UCaaS solutions.
Meanwhile, the service provider of award-winning white-label telephony, Talking Platforms, will now have its offerings powered by the ioTRAN UCaaS solution, ioPLATFORM.
Salvatore Costantino, CEO of ioTRAN, commented on the merger with Talking Platforms: “The combination of ioTRAN’s ioSaaS cloud-based telecom solutions and Talking Platforms’ award-winning white-label UCaaS reseller services offers a robust, affordable, and complete communications offering for MSPs, ISPs, cable TV operators and traditional interconnects.
“The merger we’ve announced today makes it easier for customers to get everything they need from a single provider.”
The merger allows ioTRAN and Talking Platforms to align their service offerings and take advantage of opportunities with a consolidated structure.
For ioTRAN, utilising Talking Platforms’ network assets lets them provide its ioSaaS offerings from multiple data centres, which will localise its services for its clients and end users.
As its operational structure moves under the ioTRAN brand through a transitional period, Talking Platforms will continue to operate under its existing trade name, and it will keep serving the white-label telephony market.
The ioPLATFORM
ioTRAN’s flagship product is its ioPLATFORM, which is now a class 5 Softswitch and unified communications platform designed for next-generation networks.
The ioPLATFORM can support class 5 retail, UCaaS, fax, wholesale SIP trunking, and private label markets using its advanced multi-level partitioned structure. As a result, operators can provide direct retail services and private labels to wholesale resellers simultaneously on the same platform.
At the core of the ioPLATFORM is an all-in-one solution that integrates billing, accounting, payment gateway, and taxation via a centrally managed web portal.
ioTRAN offers a complete suite of telecom solutions via its ioSaaS cloud-based offering and on-premise installations. Its technology can serve a range of clients, including service providers, carriers, CLECs, iLECS, and enterprises.
The Softswitch platform
According to Talking Platforms, what differentiates it from other white-label service providers is that they are “built from the ground up”. Its system is a carrier-built, commercial-grade Softswitch, which has been in service for more than 15 years with years of testing prior to its release.
Last year, the company released its 2nd generation Softswitch platform with UCaaS, new features, improved performance, and greater scalability. The platform includes a billing and accounting system, as well as advanced security features, such as encryption and secure voice conversations.
Talking Platforms has already been added to ioTRAN’s website, where it describes the new service as its ioSaaS service with a “PLUS”: “Welcome to the world of ioSaaS-PLUS from Talking Platforms.
“It’s never been easier to provide Hosted PBX and UCaaS services under your company branding. You get a full-featured platform that is under your full control, and you retain your customer’s direct relationship.
“Best of all, it’s powered by the ioTRAN modern Softswitch infrastructure that is catching the attention of service providers across North America.”
