Device-related

Device-related insight for Sales and Marketing

Identify specific devices to target. For example, knowing which device types drive higher ARPU could be used to craft compelling offers, or identify older devices that could be offered an upgrade.

Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting and Customer Support

Detailed device information can help Customer Service Representatives or subscribers more effectively troubleshoot support issues according to their devices’ unique features. This can result in faster resolution times and improve customer support/self-service.

Network Optimization

Network Optimization and Planning

Make business decisions driven by mobile traffic analysis. For example, tracking device-based network usage patterns can inform decisions on network optimization or planning the roll out of network infrastructure such as LTE, or the retirement of obsolete capacity.
