Syniverse Expands North American Customer Base

TAMPA, Fla. – Global mobile services provider Syniverse Technologies (NYSE: SVR) announced today it has signed 45 new customers in North America since January 2008. Expanding on its long history of success in the region, Syniverse has added to its customer roster mobile operators as well as new entrants into the mobile space, including cable operators, and Internet, VoIP and applications service providers. These new customers have selected Syniverse as a trusted supplier of messaging, roaming, clearing and fraud prevention solutions.

One of Syniverse’s newest customers is TelCentris, a unified communications and telecommunications provider that specializes in developing advanced solutions that serve the needs of its business, carrier, enterprise and consumer clients. TelCentris will implement Syniverse’s SMS Interworking Gateway for IP (SMS-IP) solution as part of a VoIP application that will enable its customers to send and receive text messages from their personal computers.

“We selected Syniverse as a service provider for its strong reputation and experience in the mobile industry,” said Bryan Hertz, CEO, TelCentris. “Syniverse will help us introduce the highest levels of mobile messaging functionality to our award-winning Unified Communications Service Delivery Platform, while the company’s comprehensive footprint in North America will enable us to provide the reach our customers demand.”

Syniverse began its business 22 years ago focusing on customers in North America. It has since expanded to now serve more than 650 operators on six continents with a reach in excess of 1.7 billion subscribers. The company also enjoys a 98 percent renewal rate from its global customer base.

Alfred de Cárdenas, Executive Vice President, North America, Syniverse, said that while Syniverse is experiencing rapid global expansion, it is still greatly dedicated to serving all types of operators in the North America region.

“Our continuing momentum in North America is a key factor in the ongoing success of our company, and we are honored to be the vendor of choice for many new Syniverse customers,” de Cárdenas said. “Through both the rollout of new services as well as the company’s strict dedication to providing superior customer support, Syniverse is well equipped to help operators provide a consistent global experience for their customers.”
