Mobile Network Testing & Monitoring

Cellex Virtual Subscriber Insight - QoE monitoring and analytics

Cellex Virtual Subscriber enables rapid creation of service scenarios, for quick and comprehensive testing of new services and network upgrades.

Background

• Mobile service providers are facing voice and text revenues decline in favor of OTT communication apps like WhatsApp, Facebook, and Instagram. 
• Fortunately, these apps contributed to a healthy data revenue curve so far. But the landscape is shifting and leaves service providers with no differentiation but their price per MB.  
• In addition to encroaching the mobile operators’ turf with competing services, the OTT apps are capitalizing on their popularity with ads revenue – a source of income largely untapped by mobile service providers.
• VoLTE, VoWifi and RCS finally turns the stake around to favor service providers.  It all comes down to attracting users back to the service provider’s communication apps because the number of eyeballs and minutes of usage are the currency of the app market. They drive monetization strategies. 

So, launching rich voice, video & messaging services as a core offering starts with understanding the OTT competition on mobile networks.

Cellex Virtual Subscriber for Lab Testing
