To accelerate success in today’s data-driven world, communications service providers must to adopt a new business paradigm – one that moves beyond the delivery of data services as a utility to the delivery of rich digital experiences over powerful and modern IP data networks. This requires a robust and continually evolving core network and IT environment that can support new business requirements as they emerge today and tomorrow.

Alepo works directly with global communications service providers – fixed and mobile, incumbent and Greenfield alike – to leverage the value in their IP data networks in order to accelerate revenue growth, market share, and business success.

The following pages describe the Alepo's solutions and products that make this success possible.

In today’s data-driven world, we see record-breaking data consumption rates climb year after year. On the horizon, the alignment of connected industries (health, education, banking, retail, manufacturing) and the connect world (home, auto, wearables) will only further weave data connectivity into the fabric of our societies, our economies, and our lives.

At the same time, communications service providers have been challenged by flat revenues despite network-shaking data traffic rates and countless overnight success stories of over-the-top players and content providers. When it comes to next-generation data networks, service providers must find more inventive ways to monetize their data networks and to deliver the most attractive and competitive data services.

Alepo makes it possible to innovate and monetize data, enabling service providers to bring differentiated data services to market faster than ever before. With robust policy and charging solutions, Alepo makes it simple and intuitive to design, test and launch new data offers and promotions, even if they're not currently supported by your legacy charging and billing systems.

technology, market conditions and regulations. The flexibility of Alepo’s Online Charging System reassures us of our investment, even as

With the demand for “data everywhere” on the rise, and with the Internet of Things on the horizon, Wi-Fi has become a cornerstone of communications service providers’ overall data strategies. The introduction of Carrier Wi-Fi can be a boon to any fixed or wireless service provider’s business.

Alepo offers a full suite of Carrier Wi-Fi solutions that enable service providers to generate new revenue, boost ARPU and the customer experience, and reduce costs in infrastructure and service delivery. Alepo’s robust Wi-Fi hotspot monetization and Wi-Fi offload solutions have been in deployment for leading service providers worldwide for nearly a decade.

Leverage Carrier Wi-Fi to -

Deliver high-speed data services to customers at a relatively low cost per byte.

Relieve congestion on cellular networks and better allocate resources.

Package Wi-Fi hotspot services as a VAS to boost ARPU and customer satisfaction.

Create new revenue channels and Wi-Fi hotspot business models.

Offer a secure, accessible, and high-quality CX on Wi-Fi hotspots.

Harness the Possibilitesof Wi-Fi

Page 15: Alepo Company Brochure

“Alepo is well-positioned to benefit from the growth in African and South Asian markets for policy-related deployments and carrier-grade Wi-Fi, particularly among Tier 2 and Tier 3 CSPs

in emerging markets.”

JOHN ABRAHAM,Senior Analyst, Analysys Mason

Wi-Fi hotspot monetization offers the potential for higher ARPUs and new, diverse revenue models:

Bundled Wi-Fi hotspot access for subscribers Convergent mobile + Wi-Fi for prepaid subscribers One-time Wi-Fi pass for casual users or tourists Managed Wi-Fi Hotspots for hotels, cafes, airports, etc. Inter-carrier partnerships for offload and Wi-Fi roaming Wholesale partnerships with resellers and affiliates Wi-Fi location-based advertising, and many more!

Wi-Fi offload makes it simple to automatically and seamlessly move subscribers from cellular networks (3G, LTE) to Wi-Fi networks can effectively lower the cost per byte for network operators. Wi-Fi hotspot networks can help to alleviate congestion on cellular networks and thus reduce or prolong the investment needed to expand cellular network infrastructure.

LTE represents a powerful step forward in mobile network technology. Offering 4G capacity and a streamlined all-IP network architecture to support the emerging wealth of diverse applications and services, LTE promises to deliver impeccable customer experience while optimizing network resources and back office systems.

For incumbent operators, a successful, smooth transition to LTE should not sacrifice or jeopardize the existing mobile infrastructure, but rather extend the functionality of the existing infrastructure to support new technologies through seamless and cost-effective integration. Greenfield providers can enjoy the benefits of a complete, purely packet-based network.

Whether the operator is eager to rollout LTE immediately or is making preparations now for an eventual launch, Alepo can offer a complete LTE control plane solution + back office to achieve a standards-built Evolved Packet System (EPS) while integrating seamlessly with the existing network infrastructure without interruption of service or costly replacements of network elements.
