DigitalRoute Named 2014 Pipeline Innovation Award Finalist

STOCKHOLM, May 28, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

Innovative data management platform provider in the running for coveted 2014 COMET Innovation Editor's Choice Award 

DigitalRoute, the leading provider of mediation solutions globally, today announces it has been selected as a finalist in the Editor's Choice category of Pipeline Magazine's 2014 Communications and Entertainment Technology (COMET) Innovation Awards.

DigitalRoute was selected for providing new approaches to enterprise data management, in particular in relation to its recently launched Online Control and Service Assurance Mediation solutions. DigitalRoute's MediationZone platform offers high throughput and provides a unique degree of user configurability, processing all usage and statistical data extracted from the networks, including both billable and non-billable events. This means customers gain greater cost efficiencies, improved times-to-market for new service offerings, the ability to monetise any data, and the means to enhance end-customer satisfaction.

2013, the period covered by the Pipeline Award, saw DigitalRoute introduce two highly innovative solutions. Service Assurance Mediation enables CSPS to leverage the millions of events generated in their networks daily to improve service quality and thereby enhance the customer experience. Online control, which encompasses Service Control, Policy Control and Routing Control addresses today's growing challenge to minimize time-to-revenue via the creation of a leaner BSS.

Each year, Pipeline, the world's leading communications and entertainment technology magazine, recognizes prominent industry innovators among distinct technical categories at the COMET Innovation Awards. Pipeline distinguishes industry-leading technologies that drive advancement in network management, speed, security, capacity, coverage, reliability, and more. Entries are judged by an esteemed panel of key industry executives from top service providers, as well as influential analysts, and members of Pipeline's editorial team.

"DigitalRoute is excited to be recognized among leading communications companies for Pipeline's 2014 Innovation Awards," says Johan Bergh, CEO, DigitalRoute. "Our ability to enable service providers to innovate while at the same time monetizing their ideas and improving their customer's experience means we are an important strategic component in their future."

"The 2014 COMET awards program has been intensely competitive and the level of innovation we've seen is unprecedented," adds Scott St. John, Executive Editor, Pipeline Magazine. "DigitalRoute awards submission was incredibly strong and an integral component of service provider big data strategy and reaching the finalist stage thus represents a considerable achievement."

Award winners will be announced at the 2014 Innovation Awards reception, held in Nice, France on June 2, 2014.
