As a new entrant in the emerging Cambodian market, CADCOMMS (News - Alert) is hoping that Redknee’s solution will help it carve a niche. The company is differentiating itself by offering a flexible, personalized billing solution. Redknee's solution makes this possible, enabling the operator more easily integrate new services and accelerate its time-to-market.

Redknee’s billing solution integrates with available core network elements and offers out-of-the-box support for 3G services. It also allows the operators to meet demands for new service offerings, thus staying ahead of the competitive curve.

"In the fiercely competitive environment of high-growth emerging mobile markets, the realization of subscriber and service revenue growth hinges on the operators' capability to offer highly-personalized services," said Lucas Skoczkowski (News - Alert), chief executive officer of Redknee, in a statement.

Skoczkowski continued: "CADCOMMS has taken a significant step toward establishing itself as a markedly-differentiated leader, uniquely positioned to realize increasing revenues and subscriber retention enabled by Redknee's market leading solutions."
