Enables Service Providers to Leverage Real-Time Data for Proactive Management of the Connected Home and a Better Broadband Experience
Incognito Software Systems Inc., a leading global provider of broadband service orchestration software solutions for digital service providers, introduced Digital Experience Solution 2.0 to enable next-generation device management and services support for the connected home. The solution features Broadband Forum standards-based User Services Platform (USP) support that brings real-time device data telemetry for greater visibility into the digital experience for subscribers, IoT devices, and smart home services. The Incognito solution provides service providers with a unified and future-proof approach to device management, encompassing current and future devices and services.
Today, almost 70 percent of inbound calls to customer care are related to in-home Wi-Fi issues. By 2023, the number of devices connected will be more than three times the global population. The increase in connected devices, spurred on by smart home automation, will increase pressure on service providers to resolve even more in-home technical issues, often resulting from contention with unmanaged devices like Wi-Fi extenders and home security systems.
