Genband is set to acquire uReach Technologies, a provider of voice, video and unified messaging solutions and services.
The acquisition of uReach’s solutions enhances Genband’s offerings with a comprehensive messaging portfolio designed to be deployed by global service providers via distributed, Internet-scale cloud or in-network models.
uReach, which works with service providers including tier 1 carriers in North America and their millions of subscribers, offers messaging software and business applications designed to enhance productivity and improve communications.
David Walsh, CEO of Genband, said: “Their technology aligns with our software-driven, open standards-based approach to network transformation – enabling a graceful migration away from expensive and aging voicemail technologies to real-time communications solutions of the future.”
The uReach solution suite includes Advanced VoiceMail, VideoMail, VisionMail and VirtualReceptionist. These solutions are mobile, social and visual, offering carriers the latest voicemail, auto-attendant, fax, unified messaging, mobile fax, and mobile visual voicemail capabilities.
The carrier-class uReach Converged Intelligent Messaging platform, which simultaneously supports all uReach applications and solutions, offers high reliability and high availability, while being scalable to millions of subscribers at a nationwide level.
Leveraging service-oriented REST APIs, the IMS-compliant and open standards approach delivers applications across any network topology and enables device-independent access to the latest messaging and calling solutions.
