Why Choose Ivent Mobile’s Network-as-a-Service
You’re about to add a new LEO satellite network and cellular to your company’s offer and you’re making a list of what that entails—network integration of new hardware, software updates and even staff training, potentially additional staff. It’s not something that can be done in a day, nor even a month, but the request from above is urgent. As usual.
From a business perspective, this upgrade comes with risks and costs. From an operations perspective, this means time, knowhow, and hardware—after all, you have a large number of points of presence (PoPs) to service. To minimise the above, you look into an option you heard of at the last trade show visit: Ivent Mobile’s NaaS.
With Ivent’s NaaS (network-as-a-service) you can get connected to their state-of-the-art technology and expert support within days. This cuts lead time significantly, and, more importantly, headaches are removed.
The Challenge
When competition forces you to expand your offer–just as you filled the last rack.
In an increasingly competitive telcos landscape, it’s not enough to focus on a sole technology, like GEO. Your customer is looking for a sole provider for GEO and potentially multiple LEOs and terrestrial. To add on the extra layers to your infrastructure, you need the capacity as well as the funds. Given the cost and complications—and the risk that you’ll be sitting on unused bandwidth—there’s a growing trend to choose shared services such as 3rd-party provisioning tools and infrastructure.

The “right” solution: One easy-to-access portal. All networks. Total control.
As satellite network operators (SNOs) or system integrators, you are well aware of the volatile global landscape with an enormous expansion of mobile connectivity capacity that is, on the one hand, helpful (price, reliability, capacity) but, on the other hand, adds additional complexity (hardware, space, support)—unless you outsource your network.
NaaS can be used for various purposes including: connecting to cloud services, quickly hooking up new branches, and incorporating advanced networking infrastructure.
NaaS can also replace traditional networking systems like VPNs and MPLS, and leverages software-defined networking (SDN) to deliver various network functionalities on demand.
