Telkomsel, one of the biggest telco provider in Indonesia today announced Appzone. As the name suggests, Appzone is an application marketplace where Telkomsel subscriber can download various apps regardless the devices they’re using. Appzone provides applications for Blackberries, iPhones and Java-based apps for Nokia and Sony-Ericsson users. So every Telkomsel users from any devices will have the privileges to enjoy these apps.

Applications showcased on Appzone now not only consist of free apps, some apps are also came with a price tag between IDR 8000 – 20.000, which is very affordable.

This is another alternative for Telkomsel subscriber other than the app offered by their manufacturer like iPhone App Store, Blackberry App World, or Android Marketplace. In terms of competition with other app-market, it is less likely to compete with other marketplace since it’s very exclusive and so far it didn’t gain enough traction from independent developers. It is most likely that Telkomsel have a deal with their software developer partners to develop mobile apps for AppZone.

The next thing Telkomsel have to do is to gather more independent developers to develop more apps and to create en healthy ecosystem where developers can make money selling apps on the Appzone. By being the one of the biggest telco with most subscribers in Indonesia, developers could actually getting tempted. Of course if Telkomsel have a better deal compared to Nexian, because we heard that Nexian will soon launch a similar platform for app developers.
