Alcatel-Lucent is one of the top of the lines. And it’s not expensive compared to other solutions. Reducing costs and having everybody connected wherever they are, where the device they have doesn’t matter. Alcatel-Lucent is very well established in the region and the support that I’m enjoying with them is marvelous. Anytime I call them, they are there. Any challenge we’re facing, they have a solution. And they are not expensive so they are very good solution for me.
