Deutsche Telekom and Comverse Add New Dimension to Visual Voicemail Service in Germany


(GlobeNewswire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) WAKEFIELD, Mass., Sept. 16, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Comverse (Nasdaq:CNSI), a global leader in telecom and enterprise business enablement, today announced successful enhancement of Deutsche Telekom's popular visual voicemail service with voice-to-text capabilities.



Visual voicemail messages, delivered to the handset for immediate retrieval, can now include the full text transcription of the caller's voice message. This enables Deutsche Telekom subscribers – for example when at business meetings – to read their voicemails instead of listening to them.

"In the German market, visual voicemail brought new relevance and popularity to voice messaging. Voice messages are delivered instantly; the information-rich inbox gives one-click access to every message and caller," said Aashu Virmani, Vice President Product Management and Product Marketing for Digital Services at Comverse. "Adding full text transcription of each voice message takes the customer experience a step further, aligning it more than ever with today's digital lifestyle." A trailblazer and market leader in the visual voicemail realm, Comverse's market share quickly escalated to more than two-thirds of commercial deployments worldwide, with visual voicemail service boosting voice messaging revenues by 30% to 50%. Comverse continues to extend its leadership and innovation in this field with integration of voice-to-text visual voicemail service into social networks and beyond.
