Device aware roaming
Our SmartRoam solution provides unequalled roaming steering flexibility and enables SIM-OTA provisioning of roaming preferences based on real-time roaming events observed in the home network. At the heart of SmartRoam is flexible business logic. With an intuitive, easy to use administration tool, it is possible for you to quickly implement changes to roaming rules based on a variety of parameters such as roaming zone, subscription, subscriber group, time, date, handset capability and preferred network. SmartRoam also offers excellent value adding reporting possibilities.
Because SmartRoam works in a standards-based, transparent way, it does not cause any disruption to the visited network nor is it affected by anti-steering methods or handset incompatibility to legacy steering methods.
By managing only active roamers, SmartRoam uses less of your OTA and SMS resources, reducing the load in the national and international SS7 network elements.
