09 September 2009

London, UK, September 9, 2009: Tribold, the world’s leading provider of Enterprise Product Management (EPM) software specifically developed for Communication Service Providers (CSPs), has been evaluated in the much anticipated Gartner July 2009 report : ‘Competitive Landscape: Product and Service Catalog Management Solutions, Worldwide’ - a comprehensive analysis of leading vendors and the business drivers for carrier adoption.

The report examines six vendors, including Tribold, offering due diligence guidance for carriers sourcing decisions. The report articulates the problems carriers face today around product and service catalog adoption, outlines the business and technical drivers and benefits of adoption for Enterprise Product & Service Management.

Two main reasons are identified driving product catalog adoption

• Competitive pressure for carriers to deliver new services to new markets quicker, often in partnerships or syndication schemas.
• Complex product life cycle management, especially for the mobile domain, with diverse products delivered to diverse customer segments, complex discounts schemas — that all call for centralized product life cycle management closely related to the actual network capabilities and the service configurations representing them.

Martina Kurth, author of the report stated: “The awareness among carriers for the end-to-end product and service catalog issue is high. It is a vital pain point for many carriers which requires urgent resolution.”

Simon Muderack, COO at Tribold commented:  “Tribold’s strategy for investing in the maturity of the TRIBOLD 3 solution and the depth of knowledge from the Tribold team are both recognized in Gartner’s report and confirm the position of Tribold as the market leader in Product and Service Catalog”
