OSS Visibility Index for July 2008

8:58 am   -   August 21st, 2008

OSS News Review has released our OSS Visibility Index ratings for the month of July 2008. The OSS Visibility Index is a list of the most visible companies and products and services in the telecom OSS/BSS industry.

The OSS Visibility Index is published on a monthly basis and comes in two parts. The first part of the OSS Visibility Index consists of the rankings of the companies that were most visible online during the reporting period. The second part of the OSS Visibility Index consists of the rankings of the OSS products and services that were most popular during the reporting period. This third installment of the OSS Visibility Index includes data compiled during July, 2008.

The company OSS Visibility Index rankings for July 2008 are:

1. Metasolv
2. Amdocs
3. Cramer
4. Comptel
5. Subex
6. Convergys
7. Redknee
8. Syndesis
9. Openet
10. cVidya
11. Intec Billing
12. Comverse
13. Netcracker
14. Highdeal
15. Cape Technologies
16. Avotus
17. Huawei Technologies
18. Appium
19. Cerillion
20. Portal Billing
21. First Hop
22. ECtel
23. Aepona
24. Telcordia
25. Vallent
26. InraISP
27. Volubill
28. Atos Origin
29. Metratech
30. Oracle Billing

For the month of July 2008, Metasolv, and Amdocs remained at the top of the list of the most visible companies in the industry (versus June 2008, these two companies were also at the top). Comptel slipped to fourth and Cramer jumped to third on the list.

Subex continues to stay at the top but went down one spot to 5th overall. Openet jumped up a few spots to 9th, as the were 14th during June 2008. Openet was previously 7th during May 2008.

The company OSS Visibility Index focuses specifically on the companies in the OSS industry. Rankings are based on many factors. Data is compiled on a regular basis from several online sources, including OSS News Review internal data, as well as other factors that OSS News Review monitors throughout the month.

The industry product and service OSS Visibility Index rankings for June 2008 include:

1. billing
2. interconnect billing
3. revenue assurance
4. service assurance
5. mobile
6. call detail record
7. revenue
8. mvno
9. telecom billing
10. convergent billing
11. oss/j
12. oss billing
13. service fulfillment
14. telecom mediation
15. telecom fraud
16. billing system
17. call data record
18. carrier access billing
19. revenue leakage
20. telecom billing system
21. mediation telecom
22. carrier access billing system
23. telecom interconnect
24. telecom frauds
25. mediation
26. fraud
27. mediation in telecom
28. billing telecom
29. support
30. call detail record format

Billing and revenue assurance continue to be popular, but interconnect billing jumped to 2nd overall for the month. Mobile went down a few spots to fifth overall, perhaps in line with reports that consumers are buying fewer cell phones.

Mediation was previously 7th but is now 14th (telecom mediation) OSS/J went down a few spots, as OSS/J was previously 9th. Top-up billing, a newcomer to the list during June 2008, is nowhere to be found this month.

While the industry product and service OSS Visibility Index focuses on products and services provided by OSS companies, OSS News Review found it helpful to include data that does not necessarily describe an OSS industry specific product or service.
