AGNITY ACONYX Multimedia Ringback Tone Service is part of our Multimedia Application Suite for service providers. Multimedia Ringback Tone integrates with content providers to enable customized video ringback tones for VoIP and 3G wireless consumers. Subscribers can purchase video and audio clips through the carriers’ web portal and assign those as their customized ringback tones. When a call is made, depending on the call type - video or audio - the assigned video or audio is played to the caller while the called party phone rings. The subscribers can assign different multimedia ringback tones for different callers, for different times of the day, or for subscriber’s presence and availability status. The Multimedia Ringback Tone service enables carriers to create considerable recurring revenue, while bringing in compelling new service enhancements. Potential revenue streams include subscription and content selection.

With today’s always connected lifestyles, everyone experiences some level of frustration when trying to communicate. Sometimes it is an incoming call at an inconvenient time, or a call missed while the phone was off or out of coverage. Probably the most common is repeatedly trying to reach someone only to get their voicemail or a busy signal.

The ACONYX CallComplete service makes every call an opportunity for the subscriber to feel connected. Small Call services allow mobile operators and MVNOs to solve each of these problems for their subscribers by enhancing the basic functions of today’s phones and networks. CallComplete services are designed to convert each non-billable call attempt into operator revenue which can be immediately realized upon deployment. Proven to stimulate high-impulse usage, the call management services drive call origination, call termination, call duration and messaging usage.
