Re: [VoiceOps] Sprint Routing/Translations contact?
we found opening a ticket as a sprint customer to be the fastest way to get anything resolved with mobile companies.

There are some vendors that handle parts of this well, Cisco HCS can provide a full UC suite including call control, multi-party video, IM, desktop/content sharing, delivers it all through the same Jabber interface on your desktop, phone, or tablet and has a beautifully simple user portal, at least in 10.x and up. Broadsoft has UC-One which provides basically the same feature set through a unified interface, though the portal is lacking. When it comes to some of the ancillary services though, it doesn’t make sense for a solution vendor to start looking at developing a full fax or call recording solution when RightFax and Hylfax, and whatever else already exist. Most of them stick to what they are good at – call control and features. If they need to provide video they buy a company, Tandberg for example. They want to add desktop sharing, buy WebEx. This is how Broadsoft acquired most (maybe all?) the constituent components of UC-One as well. If you start looking under the hood at any of the SPs that you mentioned I would venture to say that you would find a bunch of discrete systems, Broadworks or Asterisk for call control and features, Hylafax or Right Fax for faxing, an open source SMS gateway, etc. with a bunch of “glue” tying them together via APIs and a bespoke user interface to present a unified view to the customer, all tied into the providers BSS/OSS systems. That “glue” and UI is what is unique to each SP and is what turns a pile of boxes into a “solution”. It also allows you to add features and functionality easily when the next great app comes along, and prevents you from being tied to any one solution vendor. Hylafax doesn’t work out? Trash it and switch to XYZ fax, your custom UI obfuscates the change from the customer and they never know. I’ve said this before, 99% of all Broadworks shops sell the same exact product. Whatever comes out of the box, with the crappy BW portal, using Polycom phones but taking no advantage of any of the advanced features that are available. I really think that in the next few years that providers who are not offering a full UC experience for their customers and not doing anything to differentiate their products will start faltering. That innovative product suite is what providers will need in order to be competitive in the future. Let’s be honest, If you and I both sell Broadworks and you have a feature pack called “Premium” and I have one called “Executive” but they offer the same features and the only difference is price, then we are fully commoditized and can only compete on cost. Providing more services to your customer than your competitor is able to adds value and provides stickiness. Having a unique and differentiated product allows you to move the conversation away from cost, and towards the value that you can bring your customer. All that being said, I think you have a great list of features and an a good start because you are looking to model some of the companies that are already doing this successfully. I do think that you are asking too much if you are looking for a sole sourced solution. But, if you have the time, capital, and people you can certainly go out and find the best of breed for each component and then integrate them into your own unique platform.

We've tested them with the various jitter buffer lengths, Rx/Tx setting adjustments and various impedance values. The results seem very inconsistent. This is site to site as well as inconsistent results at the same site. The faxing/credit card transmissions will work for a period of time and then begin failing without any changes. We are a CLEC who control the QoS from device out to the PSTN. We've found that replacing the ATA with a Adtran TA90X usually corrects the issues but this is not a cost effective solution.
