A leading Southern European wireless, wireline, broadband and cable TV operator has selected Openet Network Selection Intelligence solution to optimize customer experience & reduce MVNO network costs. The operator selected Openet’s end-to-end solution, based on the ANDSF standard, to provide intelligent Wi-Fi management and offload capabilities to optimize the mobile data experience for its customers while dramatically reducing network costs.
Dublin-based Openet, a global leader of real-time Business Support Systems (BSS), said that the deal heralds the world’s first access network discovery and selection function (ANDSF) deployment as the operator has turned to Wi-Fi management techniques as a way of cost effectively improving the mobile data experience for its 1.9 million customers. Openet added that its Network Selection Intelligence solution can seamlessly integrate with existing network elements and applications to significantly reduce costs from interconnection fees by using a less expensive access technology.
According to Openet, the mobile data offload solution enables operators to handle management and offload decisions on a subscriber-by-subscriber basis in real-time, thus ensuring all customers benefit from the best available network capacity and enjoy an optimal mobile data user experience. In addition, it enables the operator to create a consistent experience based on common policy and charging controls combined with user profiles and service information.

Intelligent Wi-Fi management is an extremely cost effective method to addressing increasing demand for network bandwidth. Mobile users ultimately aren’t interested in which networks deliver their service; they simply wish to continue enjoying an uninterrupted and high quality user session. Our network selection intelligence solution delivers a seamless, transparent offload experience for a fraction of the cost of traditional mobile networks.
