interconnection exchange provider.
    -- GETCO's deployment will be the first of Oracle Communications Billing
and Revenue Management in Bangladesh. With this software deployment, GETCO

    -- "We had a requirement for real-time billing, rating and data sharing
with our customers and with the government. We found Oracle Communications
Billing and Revenue Management was the only solution that was able to deliver
all this at an affordable total cost of ownership. Moreover, Oracle captures
billing at the BSS layer which is more efficient and several times cheaper
than a billing solution used at the network layer," said Khandker Md.
Nur-a-alam, director, GETCO Telecommunications Limited.
    -- "GETCO will be the first communications company in Bangladesh to use
our industry-leading Oracle Communications Billing and Revenue Management
software -- the only fully convergent, real-time enterprise revenue management
software available today. We expect GETCO to benefit from efficient, real-time
billing and management as customers around the world already have," said
Raghav Sahgal, vice president of Asia Pacific for Oracle Communications.
