Dstny Launches ‘Cutting Edge’ FMC Offering

Dstny has launched a fixed mobile convergence (FMC) offering to bridge the gap between unified communications platforms and mobile devices.

Dstny Converge gives service providers the power to integrate voice services with a device’s native dialler, meaning users don’t have to switch between apps.

Johan Dalstrom, Chief Product Officer at Dstny, said:

“Several recent technical and market developments have enabled a new phase of opportunity for FMC-style services.

“Business-grade, reliable communications for users at the front-line and in the field, and new technological advancements such as eSIM and multi-SIM devices have made the addition of a work-line to any mobile phone simple and inexpensive.”

“With leading providers such as Microsoft recognizing the need and opportunity for FMC with the launch of Teams Phone Mobile, we’re excited to be rolling out our carrier-grade proven technology to UC providers and mobile operators to enable them to have a competitive business offer.

“In addition, we’ve made it especially easy for the UC provider and the MNO to get connected with Dstny Converge; in particular, we give them the option to skip the IMS integration to the mobile operator to speed up the time to market.”

Dstny said the use of FMC will improve reliability for users, while using less battery than a mobile data-powered call through a collaboration app.

It claimed that Converge requires little or no engineering work to set up, adding it currently delivers FMC services to more than 2.3 million daily active mobile users.
