Background
- Year 2000 - Ascent Telecom started off in year 2000 by developing a customized Telecom Billing Software for TDM based Long Distance (Dial Direct) & Callback Services. The OSS (Billing Software) worked by getting integrated with the Switch (say Lucent Excel Switch) and used to cater to all the support system needs of Telecom Service providers. The OSS platform also catered well to both wholesale as well as Retail set of services following Agents & reseller Models.
- Year 2003 – Ascent graduated to VoIP Billing Software Development that worked by getting integrated with Cisco range of Media gateways thus enabling Prepaid Calling card Services in VoIP. The VoIP Billing Software used to follow Radius protocol (AAA – Authentication, Authorization & Accounting) in interacting with Cisco Media gateways. The VoIP Billing Software platform also interacted with other Media Gateways like Quintum. Ascent used to sell the VoIP Billing Software to VoIP Service Providers.
- Year 2005 – With change in market scenarios, we shifted towards offering our Billing Capabilities on lease or say rent rather than selling. In the same regards, we setup our VoIP Billing Software in a co-location and along with that we also setup the Softswitch, Media Gateway, Radius Servers, IVR servers. This whole set of components were setup as one network connected on IP thus becoming a Hosted Softswitch & Billing Services setup.
- Year 2006 – Ascent did tie-ups with Tier 1 carriers at the backend (for clear high quality call termination) thus completing the VoIP network & also brought in the Multi-Level Reseller based Hosted Private Labeled Softswitch & Billing Platform. Multi-Level Private Labeled model eliminated any restriction, whatsoever, on penetration of these services in any part of the world till any extent.
