- Inability to handle a large number of terminators
- Tedious updating of static routing tables.
- Frequent errors and out of synchronization of static tables
- Difficult to reroute failed calls in real time while the call is being setup
- Difficult to change routes when a route fails
- Difficult to change routes when credit expires with any terminator
- Difficult to stop traffic over flow to limited capacity routes.
Therefore without a Alpine LCR, Telco's usually do one of two things.
- Keep a single account with an A – Z terminator and send all traffic to him.
- Keep account with few terminators and manually manage the traffic routing.
It is a known fact that without Alpine LCR, there is almost a 5% to 30% extra cost in calls delivery depending on technology the telecom uses. With telecom margins shrinking worldwide, this saving of 5% to 30% can translate into a 50% to 100% increase in the profit margin.
Business Benefits
- Some of the key benefits of Alpine LCR are as follows:
- Reduces costs and increases profit margins
- Implements global routing strategies in near real time
Alpine LCR allows carriers to modify rates/routes any time, for any terminator, without restarting the application.
