Openmind Networks is deploying its SMS personalisation system called My SMS with the Bahrain Telecommunications Company (Batelco). My SMS enables Batelco to introduce innovative solutions to its customers by offering them new, value-added services based on the most successful non-voice service to date, namely, SMS.
The personalisation of messaging services offers a new approach to increasing ARPU by putting the power of managing the specifics of services into subscribers' hands. Subscribers are offered a suite of value- added SMS services and they can set up their own services via a mobile operator portal, SMS short code or WAP. In January, Batelco introduced SMS+ Groups, SMS+ Autoreply and, on 5 February, launched an additional three new services: SMS+ Filter, SMS CUG, and SMS+ Online.
Baltelco had already deployed Openmind Networks' Network Antispam System (NAS) which enables the operator to totally detect and block SMS Spam and Scam; the same platform enables the operator to provide its customers with these new advanced SMS services.
