ROAMING HUBBING PROVIDERS CONNECT, REALISING AN IMPORTANT MILESTONE

FOR THE ROAMING HUB INDUSTRY

 

Vodafone Roaming Services and United Hubbing announced today they have entered into a Roaming Hub peering agreement, enabling network operators access to networks connected to both Roaming Hubs.

 

 

NEWBURY and LUXEMBOURG – October 13, 2009 - Vodafone Roaming Services and United Hubbing, leading providers of roaming solutions for the global telecommunications industry, announced today they have entered into a Roaming Hub peering agreement to extend roaming services across the globe.

 

 

Under these plans, network operators connected to both Roaming Hubs will be able to roam on all other network operators on the two Hubs. The agreement will enable connected operators to accelerate the provision of world wide roaming services to both their pre-paid and post-paid customers.

 

 

Dave Smithwhite, Director of Vodafone Roaming Services said: “Vodafone Roaming Services aims to empower our business customers by helping them to deliver easy and worry free communications anywhere in the world. This peering relationship is a significant step forward in achieving this ambition and demonstrates that the Roaming Hubbing concept, as defined by the GSMA, can accelerate the expansion of global roaming footprints benefiting customers and leading to an increase in roaming minutes”.

 

 

Sergey Rykov, CEO of United Hubbing, welcomed the agreement by saying: “This great combination will allow network operators to quickly and cost effectively gain substantial additional coverage for their subscribers by joining the Hub and is an exciting opportunity for networks to expand their global footprint. Commercially, this is a great opportunity for networks to tap into new sources of revenue, in a cost effective way”.

VODAFONE & DECHO PARTNER TO DELIVER PC BACKUP SERVICES

 

 

Vodafone customers to be offered secure, offsite protection and access to their PC’s digital files over fixed and mobile broadband connections

 

 

NEWBURY and SEATTLE – October 13, 2009 – Vodafone has formed a strategic partnership with Decho Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of EMC, to develop a range of cloud-based services for both business customers and consumers.

 

 

Vodafone PC Backup will enable customers to simply and securely back up work-related or personal digital content from their computer to a remotely hosted site. Once a customer has backed-up their digital content they know it is protected and that they will always be able to access it, even if their primary device is lost, stolen or otherwise unavailable.

 

 

Customers will also be able to view and share the content from their account via the web browser of a PC, laptop or netbook in the future, reducing the need to transfer content from one device to another.

 

 

Both business and consumer versions of the services will be introduced, with the former supported by a web-based management console to enable an administrator to centrally control storage allocations and policies for multiple users.

 

 

The PC Backup capabilities join Vodafone’s PC and mobile anti-virus protection in a suite which makes it simple and secure for customers to use fixed and mobile broadband services to access, organize, protect and share digital content.

 

 

Customers will be able to use Vodafone PC Backup over both fixed and mobile broadband connections via the web browser of desktop PCs, laptops, and netbooks.

 

The service will be introduced across a number of Vodafone’s major European markets throughout the remainder of this calendar year and builds upon the Mozy online backup service operated by Decho.

 


 

“Our customers are often using a range of connected devices each day, with different information and data contained on each one,” said Huw Medcraft, Director of Mobile Broadband, Vodafone. “Vodafone PC Backup will enable them to centrally store this content, providing users with the added reassurance that as a Vodafone customer their files – be they critical work documents for businesses or family photographs - will be there when they need it and accessible through a variety of devices and across both fixed and mobile networks.”

 

 

“The explosive growth in both business and consumer information is driving demand for new personal cloud services to help people protect, organize and enrich their most valuable information,” commented Harel Kodesh, CEO of Decho Corporation. “Building on the proven Mozy online backup service will differentiate Vodafone’s services and make it easier for millions of people to access and manage the information they need to do their job or run their lives each day.”
