Gentia TrafficOptimizer Helps Reduce Capital Expenditure and Improve Quality of Service

Gentia Software, in collaboration with Bell Atlantic and Hewlett-Packard, has developed a new software application called Gentia TrafficOptimizer to help network engineers and administrators optimize their existing network architecture without unnecessary additional capital expenditures. This application provides detailed information on network traffic and calling patterns, enabling telecom network operators to make informed decisions and improve quality of service. According to Tom Nolting, Staff Director for the Network Information Systems at Bell Atlantic, the application has already resulted in significant financial savings, with direct savings in avoided trunking of several million dollars and additional savings in postponed trunk builds estimated to be many times that amount.
