MATANUSKA TELEPHONE ASSOCIATION PURCHASES COMMSOFT’S COMMVERGENCE FOR WIRELESS

ALBANY, NY - CommSoft, the leading provider of billing software to midsize communications companies, announced today that Matanuska Telephone Association has signed a contract to purchase the wireless component of its CommVergence product.

Matanuska Telephone, a CommSoft customer since 1998, will now utilize CommVergence to bill for all of its services and to provide customers with truly convergent bills for wireless, wireline, and Internet. The CommVergence software suite will also enable the company to perform its customer care, rating, billing, financials and inventory—as well as its carrier-to-carrier access billing—from a single integrated system. Matanuska also uses CommSoft’s solution for the administration of capital credits (a system of profit sharing among cooperative members).

“CommSoft has provided us with a total solution for all of our end user billing and customer care needs,” said Greg Berberich, chief executive officer of Matanuska Telephone Association. “CommVergence will further enable us to respond to our customer demand for a single bill for all of their services, and to increase efficiency and productivity.”

“We are very pleased to have established a relationship with Matanuska that has resulted in benefits to their customers,” said Jim Jackson, chief operating officer of CommSoft. “This is what we strive for in developing new functionality, and our own customers are integral to that process.”
