Part of its OSS/BSS Global Competitive Strategies series, which provides strategic assessments of OSS/BSS solution vendors, the report notes that Oracle has a clear vision and understands its customers’ needs for a complete, end-to-end OSS/BSS and enterprise resource planning (ERP) platform.

Stratecast’s report states that Oracle understands that communications service providers (CSPs) need accelerated time-to-market for new services and cost-sustainability. It notes that the "secret sauce" of the company’s product suite is in integration and infrastructure that connect applications and deliver a common view of a CSP’s customers and services.

Further, the report highlights Oracle’s history in the communications industry including the development of its OSS/BSS platform through recent acquisitions - Siebel Systems, Portal Software, MetaSolv Software and Netsure - noting that not only has Oracle grown with its acquisitions, but it is also quickly integrating its new products into an end-to-end solution offering.

In addition, the report notes that Oracle’s strategy to integrate its ERP solution into the Oracle Communications suite provides several advantages, including a reduced-risk value proposition due to the pre-integration of its applications.

Looking to the future, Stratecast’s report notes that it expects Oracle to continue to develop its end-to-end platform to meet customers’ growing and changing needs.
