TeleSphere Software and Vision Net announced today that Vision Net has become the first reseller of TeleSphere’s Advantage Circuit Management (ACM) SaaS platform. In addition to its managed and NOC services offerings, Vision Net will now promote ACM to its carrier and enterprise customers.
ACM is TeleSphere’s newest OSS platform and optimizes the process of managing special circuits and inside plant equipment. Courtesy of a formal workflow process, key performance indicators are developed and the timing associated with revenue realization is improved, says the company. A variety of tools provide greater network visibility including inside plant equipment and the association of special circuits, customers and contracts.
Unnecessary costs associated with offnet circuits can be avoided via contract management reports. Maintenance and outage notifications can be expeditiously completed using email notification functionality. A recently released API facilitates integration with network management systems (NMS) whereby allowing the monitoring of various service level agreement (SLA) metrics.
“We’ve been using ACM internally for about a year and can personally attest to the operational benefits,” commented Corey Jensen, EVP of Vision Net. “We have greater visibility of our network assets, can more effectively manage maintenance notifications and, thanks to integration with our NMS, will be able to manage the SLA requirements of our carrier customers. Our partnership with TeleSphere will enable us to offer our customers the same capabilities.”
“Vision Net is an ideal partner,” added Todd Twete, TeleSphere’s VP of Sales. “They have a stellar reputation and extensive expertise on many facets of the industry. There is no stronger endorsement than to promote a platform that you already have elected to integrate and operationalize.”
