User-centric approach
Increasingly, today’s users want personalized text, data,
voice and video anywhere, anytime, on any device. The
Alcatel-Lucent user-centric approach allows you to offer
the services you customers are looking for — adding value
to the end customer and new revenue opportunities for
you. By focusing on the overall user experience, rather
than the specific technology or individual products to be
offered, the Alcatel-Lucent End-to-End IMS Solution can
be phased in to ensure the “right fit” for interpersonal
communications, user-experience continuity across
devices and networks, instant access anywhere and
self-service personalization.
