    Spirent Acquires Wi-Fi Experience Monitoring Specialist Epitiro

    Dec 8, 2015

     

    思博倫通信今天宣布,它已經收購了Epitiro,這是一家在Wi-Fi體驗監控市場中正在迅速發展的先驅和領導者。思博倫之所以收購Epitiro,是由於雙方已經建立的戰略合作關係的成功,這導致了體驗監控系統已經在多個客戶採用部署,其中包括了美國重要的運營商。

     

    服務提供商和大型企業越來越多地依賴於WiFi無線網絡,來為用戶提供高質量的語音,視頻和數據服務,以及存取關鍵業務的應用程序。不幸的是,Wi-Fi的複雜性,和其與LTE和其它移動技術的動態相互作用往往使提供商和企業無法了解最終用戶的實際體驗。

     

    Epitiro基於網絡的平台藉由主動執行模擬真實的用戶活動的測試,提供對於最終用戶體驗的連續性監視。主要的測試指標包括Wi-Fi連接的可用性,文件傳輸和網頁瀏覽的速度,社交媒體應用如Facebook等的可用性和性能等。 Epitiro的小型又堅固的探針可以部署在辦公樓,廠房,體育場館等場所,用來提供對於可用性和服務經驗的實時的觀察。

     

    Sunnyvale, Calif. – Dec 8, 2015 – Spirent Communications, today announced that it has acquired Epitiro, a pioneer and leader in the rapidly growing Wi-Fi experience monitoring market. The acquisition of Epitiro by Spirent builds on the success of a strategic partnership which has led to experience monitoring system deployments at multiple customers, including a tier 1 US service provider. 

     

    Service providers and large enterprises increasingly rely on Wi-Fi to provide users with high-quality voice, video and data services and access to business-critical applications. Unfortunately, the complexity of Wi-Fi and its dynamic interaction with LTE and other mobile technologies often leaves providers and enterprises blind to the actual end user experience. Epitiro’s web-based platform provides continuous visibility of the end-user experience by proactively performing tests that emulate realistic user activities. Key metrics include availability of Wi-Fi connectivity, file transfer and web browsing speed, availability and performance of social media applications like Facebook and much more. Epitiro’s compact, rugged probes may be deployed in office buildings, factories, stadiums and other mobility locations providing real-time insight into the availability and experience of services.  

     

    Spirent’s service assurance suite enables providers to proactively identify problems, often before they impact the customer experience. The suite consists of four product lines: Device and End-to-End, Network, In-Home, and Mobility. Each product line uses a patented set of proactive test technologies to assure the quality of devices and services before launch and during live operation. Epitiro’s solutions are now part of the newly-formed Mobility product line with a focus on assuring the experience of Wi-Fi and LTE services in mobility locations. 

     

    “Our service provider and enterprise customers increasingly see Wi-Fi as an integral part of their strategy to provide services anywhere and anytime,” said Des Owens, general manager of Service Assurance at Spirent. “With this acquisition, we’re building on the success of our strategic partnership with Epitiro and see an exciting opportunity to improve the visibility of Wi-Fi experience for many more service providers and enterprises worldwide. We’ll also be better positioned to integrate Epitiro’s pioneering Wi-Fi technology across our suite and to provide our customers with seamless support and services.”

     

    Gavin Johns, managing director of Epitiro, added, "We are delighted to join the Spirent team and are excited by the prospect of working closely together to further build our business in this growing and exciting market."
