Digicel Group, the largest mobile telecommunications operator in the Caribbean has deployed Sandvine's Network Policy Control solutions to offer their subscribers innovative service plans, extending the existing relationship between the two companies. Last year, Digicel expanded their deployment of Sandvine’s Network Analytics, Usage Management, and OutReach products to over 30 mobile networks in the Caribbean and Pacific.
Sandvine, a leading provider of intelligent broadband network solutions for fixed and mobile operators, said that the deployment plays a key part in Digicel’s commitment to deliver their subscribers the best value, the best service, and the best network possible. In addition to the deployment of Sandvine equipment in their production network, Digicel will also be using the Sandvine Virtual Series to enable the Operator to develop and test their virtualization strategy. The Sandvine Virtual Series enables CSPs to enjoy all the features of the traditional Sandvine platform while benefiting from the elasticity and efficiency of running virtual machines on commercial off-the-shelf hardware (COTS).
Our ability to take data gathered from Sandvine’s business intelligence products and then use its unified policy engine to immediately create, deploy, and promote new service plans is something we could not do with any other vendor.
Tom Donnelly, Sandvine’s COO, Sales and Global Services
Digicel is one of the most nimble operator groups Sandvine has worked with. Digicel’s ability to quickly launch new services using Sandvine’s Policy Engine will ensure that their subscribers have access to some of the most innovative service plans in the world.
