Device-aware and subscriber-centric device management
The diversity of today’s handsets is only matched by the diversity of subscribers. SmartProvisioning is a device management solution that’s fully operational with a minimum of configuration and integration work, yet flexible and scalable enough to meet any operator’s needs.
Challenge
For subscribers to take advantage of today’s advanced mobile data services, handsets must be correctly configured and identified. Operators must capitalize on the first vital “golden hour”, when the subscriber is most willing to explore new services and accept guidance and assistance. A great opportunity is missed if the (U)SIM and terminal are not ready for operation.
Solution
Building on SmartTrust’s expertise in (U)SIM and terminal management, SmartProvisioning focuses on the needs of the subscriber and the capabilities of the device, automating the process of readying the handset. Incorporating comprehensive support for event detection, business logic built from real-life experience, carrier grade OTA and detailed Repository, SmartProvisioning is an excellent foundation for terminal management.
