Leading mobile communication company in East Africa, the Smart and Kirusa,
a global leader in providing telecom and social media solutions, have partnered
to launch the unique InstaVoice service in Tanzania, reports ITRealms.
The Group
CEO, Smart, Abdellatif Bouziani, said that with the deployment of the InstaVoice
service, Smart subscribers could now send and receive voicemails and voice
messages seamlessly as well as receive missed call notifications anytime they
miss a call, including when their mobile is switched off.
Smartphone users, he said, could do this via the InstaVoice app. Its intuitive and unique chat-like interface
allows users to manage and respond to missed calls and voicemails through text
as well as rich media, while enjoying other features like unlimited voicemail
inbox, personalized voicemail greetings, voicemail delivery over email, option
to link multiple numbers and ability to withdraw an already sent
voicemail/message.
As said by
him, future phone users and non-app users could still enjoy the service as they
will be alerted via SMS of new voicemails or voice messages.
“They can
simply follow the short instruction in the SMS to retrieve the messages and can
dial ‘star’ followed by the recipient’s number to record and send a voice message,”
he said.
The
InstaVoice Service, he explained, has been designed to facilitate seamless
communication across networks and countries. Over 50 mobile operators across
the globe have partnered with Kirusa to provide an integrated InstaVoice
experience to over 100 million monthly active users.
“InstaVoice
is a highly innovative forum that has recaptured the idea of voice messaging
for our customers and in the long run adds to call completion in scenarios when
the person one is trying to reach is unreachable, has their phone switched off,
or is busy. We strive to provide innovative, value-for-money solutions to our customers and fulfill their need to communicate
seamlessly” he said.
Tanzania tele
density has reached 79% in 2015, for which mobile voice subscriptions account
for the greatest part. In the past five years, mobile subscriptions rose by
89%, from 21m in 2010 to almost 40m in 2015.
Inderpal
Singh Mumick, Founder and CEO of Kirusa
said, “InstaVoice is a highly acclaimed service across Africa, and we hope to receive an
enthusiastic response in Tanzania. The integrated features are sure to
deliver an enhanced, and smooth messaging experience.”
InstaVoice is
also available as the first-ever voicemail skill on Amazon’s Alexa platform. Users can configure their InstaVoice
account to avail a seamless access to voicemails over Alexa Platform.
