Comptel Extends Latin America Footprint


HELSINKI, October 23 /PRNewswire/ --

- Comptel Opens New Representations in Mexico and Argentina to Serve
Growing Latin America Customer Base

Comptel Corporation (OMX Helsinki: CTL1V), the leading vendor of dynamic
Operations Support System (OSS) software, announced today that it has
established representations in Mexico City and Buenos Aires to support the
growing Latin American market. These representations complement Comptel's
main office in the region in Sao Paulo (Brazil), central to the company's
success in Latin America.

Comptel has achieved considerable success across Latin America in recent
years and now has over ten customers in the region taking advantage of
Comptel Dynamic OSS(TM) solutions. Comptel also sees tremendous potential in
extending its existing strong partnerships with global system integrators as
well as creating new alliances with local partners.

"As adoption rates for new technologies increase, Latin American
communications service providers face a lot of challenges, but also a
tremendous opportunity," said Mr. Alexandre Troise, VP Latin America at
Comptel. "Having worked with over 280 customers worldwide, Comptel has
experience in helping CSPs optimise their OSS and increase revenues from new
wireless services. The growing adoption of IP in the region, especially in
corporate segments, will make a dynamic OSS layer essential to help improve
time to market."

"A growing number of CSPs in the region recognise the value offered by
Comptel," said Ms. Arnhild Schia, Comptel's Senior Vice President South and
West Europe, Asia Pacific and Americas. "Our strategy has been to partner
with our customers and develop long-standing relationships. In this respect
we have been very successful - for example, we have been working for over
eight years with Axtel in Mexico."

Comptel will be exhibiting at Futurecom, Sao Paulo, Brazil, 27-30 October
2008 (booth: A24). Comptel will also be speaking on "Quality of Experience
Assurance for Broadband Service Users"at the conference from 12:20 on October
