Back office vendor ETI Software Solutions now supports MobiTV's MobiTV Connect Platform. MobiTV Connect is a cloud-based IP video platform that does not require a traditional set-top box.
"It's exciting when innovative, industry-disruptive companies such as MobiTV introduce game-changing technologies which help our customers drive revenue and increase profit margins," said Frank Gine, CEO, ETI Software. "For us, the digital transformation presents ETI with another opportunity to shine for our customers by providing a new integration which is absolutely bullet-proof and ensures service and revenue assurance for our valued customers."
"Our combined solution creates the opportunity for smaller providers to stay competitive and offer state-of-the-art video services at a lower cost," said Bill Routt, president and COO, MobiTV. "With the MobiTV Connect Platform, operators can provide new value-added services like catchup TV, voice integration, network DVR, social integration and recommendations. This actually allows operators to live up to the fast-changing industry and provide a rich in-home TV experience - without the capital costs."
"ETI's integration with MobiTV will allow our service providers to evolve to a next-gen video platform while maintaining all back-end integrations," said Greg Gross, senior director, product management, ETI Software. "One of ETI's strengths is our ability to simplify the transition to newer state-of-the-art technology and products, by minimizing service disruptions and assuring a continuous subscriber experience, thus allowing our customers to migrate quickly in a flash-cut, or slowly over time."
In December, MobiTV inked deployment deals with eight NCTC member companies, including Citizens Fiber, which deployed the platform in March.
