"ZTEsoft serves more than 130 CSP customers in more than 80 countries," said Stratecast Operations, Orchestration, Data Analytics & Monetization (ODAM) strategy analyst Troy Morley. "The company is very competitive with the functionality it offers, and counts many CSPs in developed countries as customers. ZTEsoft has also found a sweet spot in emerging markets in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America, where average revenue per user (ARPU) is lower and the value provided by a billing solution is of utmost importance."
The ZTEsoft ZSmart product suite addresses a range of operations and monetization functions. The company's primary monetization solutions include the ZSmart Online Charging Solution (OCS), ZSmart Convergent Billing System (cvBS), ZSmart Policy Manager, ZSmart API Management, and ZSmart Mediation.
ZSmart OCS is a unified event-based charging engine that rates and charges events in real time (online charging) or in batch mode (offline charging.)
ZSmart cvBS provides real-time, policy-enabled rating and charging and balance management to support both event-based (online) and file-based (off-line) charging. It uses the same rating engine to offer convergent prepaid and postpaid billing. The solution also provides core billing capabilities such as invoicing, accounts receivable, financial management, and payments and collections.
ZSmart Policy Manager enables policy management functionality for multiple networks and services from a single platform. ZSmart Policy Manager helps operators define policy to deliver real-time control of subscriber access and quality of service based on factors such as service type, usage, time, and subscriber type.
ZSmart API Management provides capabilities in support of both interconnect and settlement management and partner management. ZSmart Mediation enables both online and off-line billing mediation.
All of the ZSmart monetization solutions are tightly integrated and can also be presented together with the ZSmart OSS suite to provide a pre-integrated, end-to-end monetization and operations solution suite.
