(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
* Gartner places Ericsson in Operations Support Systems (OSS) Leaders Quadrant
for third consecutive year
* Completeness of vision and ability to execute drive Ericsson OSS market
leadership
Ericsson (NASDAQ:ERIC) today announced that Gartner, Inc. has positioned
Ericsson in the "leaders" quadrant for the third consecutive year in the Gartner
Magic Quadrant for Operations Support Systems(1). The company's comprehensive
industry-leading OSS portfolio and professional services are driving network,
service and customer agility for operators globally. This includes support for
every phase of the customer lifecycle as operators innovate, enter new vertical
markets, and establish partner ecosystems. Gartner, a leading worldwide IT
research and advisory firm, evaluated vendors in this year's report based on
ability to execute and completeness of vision.
Ericsson's end-to-end consulting, systems integration, managed services and
software suites have driven the company's leadership status as a premiere
partner to operators around the world. Ericsson's software and services help
manage complexity and reduce total cost of ownership with a unique mix of end-
to-end operations and network competence, experience and software capabilities.
Today, Ericsson supports more than 900 OSS deployments globally.
"We believe Ericsson's positioning furthest along the completeness of vision
axis in Gartner's OSS Magic Quadrant analysis further validates our strategy and
recent global acquisitions. Our leadership role in the market is supported by
our end-to-end, pre-integrated, modular OSS suite that improves customer
satisfaction while lowering costs and increasing revenues," says Per Borgklint,
Senior Vice President and Head of Ericsson's Business Unit Support Solutions.
"Ericsson is proud to be recognized for its completeness of vision and ability
to execute."
The OSS Magic Quadrant evaluates vendors that sell end-to-end solutions for
service assurance, fulfillment, and order and catalog management solutions, as
well as new OSS infrastructures to support SDN/NFV and enterprise wide customer
experience initiatives for communications service providers.
To meet consumer demand, operators must keep improving the customer experience,
capture new revenues and drive business efficiencies. Ericsson is helping
operators become agile with a comprehensive, unified OSS/BSS software suite as
well as world-class consulting, systems integration and managed services
capabilities.
