8. To accelerate success in today’s data-driven world, communications service
providers must to adopt a new business paradigm – one that moves beyond
the delivery of data services as a utility to the delivery of rich digital
experiences over powerful and modern IP data networks. This requires a
robust and continually evolving core network and IT environment that can
support new business requirements as they emerge today and tomorrow.
Alepo works directly with global communications service providers – fixed
and mobile, incumbent and Greenfield alike – to leverage the value in their
IP data networks in order to accelerate revenue growth, market share, and
business success.
The following pages describe the Alepo's solutions and products that make
this success possible.

10. In today’s data-driven world, we see record-breaking data
consumption rates climb year after year. On the horizon, the
alignment of connected industries (health, education, banking,
retail, manufacturing) and the connect world (home, auto,
wearables) will only further weave data connectivity into the fabric
of our societies, our economies, and our lives.
At the same time, communications service providers have been
challenged by flat revenues despite network-shaking data traffic
rates and countless overnight success stories of over-the-top players
and content providers. When it comes to next-generation data
networks, service providers must find more inventive ways to
monetize their data networks and to deliver the most attractive and
competitive data services.
Alepo makes it possible to innovate and monetize data, enabling
service providers to bring differentiated data services to market
faster than ever before. With robust policy and charging solutions,
Alepo makes it simple and intuitive to design, test and launch new
data offers and promotions, even if they're not currently supported
by your legacy charging and billing systems.
Innovate and Monetize
Data
11. “In such a transitional period for emerging 4G technologies, it was
crucial to implement a solution that can readily adapt to changes in
technology, market conditions and regulations. The flexibility of Alepo’s
Online Charging System reassures us of our investment, even as
technologies evolve and our subscriber base grows.”

12. Savvy communications service providers know that a stellar
customer experience is paramount to success. The customer
experience serves to build brand equity and customer loyalty,
reduce churn and customer care costs. When the customer
experience is optimized, it provides new opportunities for up-sell
and cross-sell, contributing to higher ARPU and overall revenue.
Alepo’s suite of carrier-grade solutions enhance the customer
experience on multiple fronts, by enabling more personalized and
contextual data offers, by integrating intuitive customer care and
self-care tools for web and mobile, and by ensuring real-time
customer communications. Alepo automates customer experience
processes wherever possible to achieve greater efficiency and
automated customer interactions.

competitive advantage of partnering with an experienced vendor such as
Alepo. Our partnership with Alepo guarantees us not only a rapid deployment
but also a flexible, scalable solution that will allow us to quickly respond to

14. With the demand for “data everywhere” on the rise, and with the
Internet of Things on the horizon, Wi-Fi has become a cornerstone of
communications service providers’ overall data strategies. The
introduction of Carrier Wi-Fi can be a boon to any fixed or wireless
service provider’s business.
Alepo offers a full suite of Carrier Wi-Fi solutions that enable service
providers to generate new revenue, boost ARPU and the customer
experience, and reduce costs in infrastructure and service delivery.
Alepo’s robust Wi-Fi hotspot monetization and Wi-Fi offload solutions
have been in deployment for leading service providers worldwide for
nearly a decade.
Leverage Carrier Wi-Fi to -
Deliver high-speed data services to customers at a relatively low
cost per byte.
Relieve congestion on cellular networks and better allocate
resources.
Package Wi-Fi hotspot services as a VAS to boost ARPU and
customer satisfaction.
Create new revenue channels and Wi-Fi hotspot business models.
Offer a secure, accessible, and high-quality CX on Wi-Fi hotspots.
Harness the Possibilites
of Wi-Fi
15. “Alepo is well-positioned to benefit from the growth in African
and South Asian markets for policy-related deployments and
carrier-grade Wi-Fi, particularly among Tier 2 and Tier 3 CSPs
in emerging markets.”
JOHN ABRAHAM,
Senior Analyst, Analysys
Mason

Wi-Fi hotspot monetization offers the potential for higher
ARPUs and new, diverse revenue models:
Bundled Wi-Fi hotspot access for subscribers
Convergent mobile + Wi-Fi for prepaid subscribers
One-time Wi-Fi pass for casual users or tourists
Managed Wi-Fi Hotspots for hotels, cafes, airports, etc.
Inter-carrier partnerships for offload and Wi-Fi roaming
Wholesale partnerships with resellers and affiliates
Wi-Fi location-based advertising, and many more!
Wi-Fi offload makes it simple to
automatically and seamlessly move
subscribers from cellular networks (3G, LTE)
to Wi-Fi networks can effectively lower the
cost per byte for network operators. Wi-Fi
hotspot networks can help to alleviate
congestion on cellular networks and thus
reduce or prolong the investment needed to
expand cellular network infrastructure.
SAVE COSTS
MAKE MONEY
16. LTE represents a powerful step forward in mobile network
technology. Offering 4G capacity and a streamlined all-IP network
architecture to support the emerging wealth of diverse applications
and services, LTE promises to deliver impeccable customer
experience while optimizing network resources and back office
systems.
For incumbent operators, a successful, smooth transition to LTE
should not sacrifice or jeopardize the existing mobile infrastructure,
but rather extend the functionality of the existing infrastructure to
support new technologies through seamless and cost-effective
integration. Greenfield providers can enjoy the benefits of a
complete, purely packet-based network.
Whether the operator is eager to rollout LTE immediately or is
making preparations now for an eventual launch, Alepo can offer a
complete LTE control plane solution + back office to achieve a
standards-built Evolved Packet System (EPS) while integrating
seamlessly with the existing network infrastructure without
interruption of service or costly replacements of network elements.
Evolve to LTE
17. “It was vital that we choose a scalable and flexible
solutions provider such as Alepo, experienced in
multi-service, convergent charging and policy
with a strong dedication to LTE.”
