ST. LOUIS, Nov. 28, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Amdocs (NYSE: DOX), the leading provider of customer experience systems and services, today announced that it has been positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the Leaders quadrant of the Magic Quadrant for Integrated Revenue and Customer Management[1] (IRCM) for communications service providers.  The report evaluates vendors' ability to execute and completeness of vision.

"We believe our positioning in the Leaders quadrant by Gartner is an affirmation of our ability to deliver innovative solutions that address service providers' core business needs," said Rebecca Prudhomme, vice president for product and solutions marketing at Amdocs. "The combination of Amdocs CES ‒ a comprehensive BSS, OSS and network control portfolio that manages the complete customer experience from device to the network, and Amdocs' wide range of proven services, means that Amdocs is uniquely positioned to offer support for service providers' end-to-end business lifecycle."
