HELSINKI, July 8 /PRNewswire/ --

- Comptel Provisioning and Activation Solution to Eliminate Suriname
Operator's Manual Processes

Comptel Corporation (OMX Helsinki: CTL1V), the leading vendor of dynamic
Operations Support System (OSS) software, today announced that Telesur has
selected Comptel Provisioning and Activation to centralize and automate its
order-to-activation process. Eliminating the service provider's manual entry
system, the solution will make it easier to provision subscribers and
services, and deliver increased efficiencies in the process.

Government-owned Telesur has been the incumbent operator in the Republic
of Suriname since 1973. It offers local and international, fixed and mobile
telephony, Internet and data services to all districts in the country. Over
the past couple of years, Suriname's telecommunications environment has
opened up to competing operators that offer GSM services. To remain the
leader in the mobile sector, Telesur needed to overcome business
inefficiencies caused by its manual mode of operations.

"We required a solid provisioning and activation engine to help us
further improve our GSM services," said Mr. Dirk Currie, CEO, Telesur.
"Comptel's offering will allow us to control costs, reduce human errors,
improve time to market-and maintain our competitive edge in Suriname."

Comptel Provisioning and Activation enables operators to fully automate
the process of handling subscriber orders to activate services in the
network-all to the start of billing. It bridges the gap between service
providers' customer care, sales and complex network platforms, and
facilitates the rapid introduction of services or changing network element
technologies.

"Suriname's evolving telecom market confirmed Telesur's need for a
reliable, centralized provisioning and activation solution," said Mr. Ricardo
Carreon, senior vice president, Americas, Comptel. "Comptel Dynamic OSS will
greatly improve the service provider's operations and overall business. We
look forward to growing our OSS partnership with Telesur."

Comptel will be exhibiting at CANTO 2009, taking place July 12-15, 2009
in Trinidad & Tobago. Visit the company at booth #07 for more information.
Ms. Kristi Siple, senior director, business development, will be leading a
session on "Developing Business on Mobile" on Wednesday, July 15 from
1:00-4:00 p.m.
