MELVILLE, NY – November 3, 2003 – CosmoCom
announced today that it has signed an agreement with
Prague-based 1Tel for the distribution of its products in
the Czech Republic and other countries in Eastern Europe.
Under the agreement, 1Tel will sell and provide systems
integration services for CosmoCall Universe™ for
premise-based deployments. Separately, 1Tel has also agreed
to distribute and act as system integrator for Multimedia
Contact Center (MCC), the network-hosted Contact Center
On-Demand™ service from BT Global Services that is based
on the same CosmoCom platform.
1Tel joins a growing list of system integrators that have
recognized a major opportunity in telco-provided hosted
contact center services. While outsourcing technology
infrastructure eliminates the need for end users to deploy
and manage onsite technology, system integrators will
continue to play an important role in building complete
solutions around on-demand services like BT’s MCC.
"CosmoCom is the leading provider of all-IP contact
center platforms," said Frantisek Zeman, managing
director for 1Tel, "and we see great potential in our
markets for both the premises model and the on-demand model.
By teaming with CosmoCom and with their partner BT, we can
offer the broadest possible array of solution options to our
customers."
"1Tel is already recognized as the leading provider
of conventional call center solutions in its region,"
said Ari Sonesh, chairman and CEO for CosmoCom. "This
relationship extends their lead to include all-IP multimedia
contact center solutions. And with hosted contact center
offerings like BT’s MCC beginning to capture significant
market share, 1Tel is well positioned to participate in a
variety of state-of-the-art contact center projects. We are
pleased and proud to have 1Tel as a partner."
