Analysts on Volubill
« With mobile data usage continuing to surge, operators must be able to leverage policy systems rapidly if they are to stay ahead of a market that is more dynamic than ever. One of Volubill's greatest strengths has always been its ability to blend IT and network functionalities into a single technology. With the graphic interface enhancements to CONTROL-IT V6, they are now giving business managers the ability to directly enact new policy models on the network at a higher velocity by removing a persistent boundary between business and IT teams. This kind of solution will go a long way toward letting operators take real-time control of their networks and leverage policy more creatively in the future. »

« Operators are looking to shape and offload as much traffic as possible to protect network resources and increase customer satisfaction. If these functions can be done at the network edge and as close to the subscriber as possible, they will yield greater benefits for the operator by freeing up even more capacity. Volubill’s Edge Offload solution is a step in the right direction. »

« Volubill has gained significant traction with its policy solution in emerging markets, including Africa and the Caribbean, where a heavily prepaid customer base and declining ARPUs drive the need for more sophisticated customer segmentation techniques. They have made inroads into more established markets as well, including a recent significant contract deal with an unnamed US operator. »

« The need for an integrated solution that incorporates application and subscriber inspection, policy management, control, and charging is a key obstacle (for innovation in new charging models). All of these elements are essential to the introduction of segmented, personalized and innovative services, and too often today they exist only partially across a variety of different vendor solutions. Operators should pay close attention to providers such as Volubill that can transcend these elements and provide a single-source solution that has the necessary functionality at both the infrastructure and software layers. »
