Monolith Software Receives 2010 Internet Telephony BSS/OSS Excellence Award

ST. CHARLES, IL--(Marketwire - May 18, 2011) - Monolith Software, the market's first and only unified IT infrastructure management software provider, today announced that TMC, a global, integrated media company, has named Monolith as a recipient of the 2010 INTERNET TELEPHONY BSS/OSS Excellence Award. Monolith was selected for its single code base, multi-tenancy architecture as well as its ability to quickly normalize and correlate data into a rich metric warehouse and display customized results on real-time dashboards.

"Monolith offers a better approach for providers challenged with maintaining quality services," said Jeff Parker, president, Monolith Software. "One of the main issues: providers don't have a holistic, operational view into all services. As services offered have become increasingly complex and conjoined at varying levels, it becomes increasingly difficult if not impossible, to blend together management data from the amalgamation of disparate legacy solutions in order to manage services holistically. This becomes readily apparent when organizations attempt to embark on delivering CEM, SLM and/or Portals to their customers. Clearly, now more than ever, a unified approach is needed."

Monolith offers a comprehensive solution that enables unprecedented access to decision-enabling data and one, consolidated multi-tenant interface for expanding access to deeper business intelligence. The company's unified approach streamlines and enhances fault, availability, performance, correlation, discovery and topology mapping. The result is a simplified process for SLA management and capturing network KPIs. Contact Monolith Software to schedule a demonstration at TM Forum's Management World 2011.

"Monolith Software has demonstrated achievements in creating an exceptional platform for supporting internal network operations or customer support solutions and therefore was selected to receive a BSS/OSS Excellence Award from the editors of INTERNET TELEPHONY. With its unified IT infrastructure management approach, Monolith Software has provided outstanding contributions in delivering winning solutions for its customers," said Erik Linask, Editorial Director of INTERNET TELEPHONY.

"I am pleased to recognize Monolith Software with a 2010 INTERNET TELEPHONY BSS/OSS Excellence Award for their commitment to growth and innovation," stated Rich Tehrani, CEO, TMC. "Congratulations to the entire team at Monolith Software and I look forward to continued excellence."

The 2010 INTERNET TELEPHONY BSS/OSS Excellence Award winners are published in the May 2011 issue of INTERNET TELEPHONY magazine, www.itmag.com.
