Optimus Selects NeuStar to Bring Converged Instant Messaging Services to Portugal

Overview

Portuguese mobile operator Optimus had a huge belief in IM, which is why they decided of launching an ISP and an Optimus-branded service simultaneously. Optimus is the first mobile operator in the world to deliver both an "Own-branded" IM service that can be accessed from the PC and the mobile through NeuStar's industry-leading Instant Messaging Service Centre (IMSC) and to offer the popular Windows Live Messenger service through NeuStar's Mobile Messaging Gateway (MMG). Optimus also has invested in both NeuStar's Interconnect Platform (ICP) in order to interconnect to other mobile IM services across Portugal, and NeuStar's Presence Platform (PSP) to provide powerful presence capabilities across the Optimus network.
