Our Chief Techsplainer, Quentin, gets to grips with some of your queries….
As the immediacy of communicating through apps such as Facebook Messenger and WhatsApp becomes the norm, businesses are starting to re-think how they can engage with their customers.
A global Communications Service provider (CSP) that needed to query large amounts of data to help with accurate and efficient voice traffic routing and A2P message delivery, was looking for a cost-effective solution that would help it to avoid the additional head count, regulatory and cost challenges it would incur if it had to manage everything in house.
Two leading providers of trusted telecommunications numbering information come together to better serve a growing global need for trusted communications.
