Study: Operators can use VoLTE and RCS services, ultimately to retain their subscribers, and also increase revenues

Progressively the competitive VoLTE and RCS services appear like a relevant alternative to help Mobile carriers to increase their revenues and improve their services.

According to ABI Research, the eager acceptance of OTT applications is greatly expanding the overall messaging market and comes partly at the

expense of legacy text messaging.

Connectikpeople has also observe that,  ABI Research finds the deployment of competitive VoLTE and RCS services will help operators retain 65% of their former messaging market share.

But the study precises that, however, the many free and low-cost alternatives available to consumers are still a worrying concern for operators. ‘’Operators can use VoLTE and RCS services, ultimately to retain their subscribers, and also increase revenues that will come with the many innovations from third party developers. The quality of services that VoLTE and RCS can provide to their customers will be as table stakes in the mobile device, and prove compelling to subscribers’’.

ABI Research also finds that the leading infrastructure vendors, Ericsson, Alcatel-Lucent, Huawei, and NSN all have compelling RCS solutions. ‘’There are also various specialists with RCS-based solutions available for operators. Companies like, Acision RCS, BroadSoft, Syniverse, Kineto and more also provide the Mobile Network Operators the means to overpower OTTs in the market’’.
