“We are growing, and the China announcement is an example,” said Marco Limena, the company’s new president and CEO. Limena joined Sylantro after managing the telecom business for Hewlett-Packard. Value-added services based on Sylantro’s feature server will be demonstrated at Huawei’s booth at the ITU Telecom World show this week.
Sylantro has completed interoperability testing of its feature servers with major vendors including Alcatel, Ericsson, Motorola, Nokia, Nortel, Samsung, Siemens and Sonus, Limena said, and Huawei now joins the list.
“Our strategy is to address our end customers, which are larger service providers, through our work with larger companies,” Limena said.
Larger service providers are recognizing a competitive need to offer VoIP and advanced services such as hosted VoIP and value-added services, he added. Companies such as SunRocket, a Sylantro customer, are offering options such as individual ring tones for members of a family that subscribes to VoIP, and concierge services that notify customers through email of incoming voice mail messages at home.
Limena, who said he is enjoying the “passion and energy” of a small company, also sees major growth ahead for Sylantro, including in the wireless market where the company is providing the dial-tone for Motorola’s mobile WiMAX service. “We have a wireless virtual PBX that integrates with the MSC [mobile switching center] and gateway MSC,” he said.
