Acquisition significantly enhances InfoVista’s
wireless networking expertise and complements its existing
solutions to orchestrate network performance
InfoVista, the leading provider of network performance
orchestration solutions for a better connected and collaborative
world, today announced a binding agreement to acquire Ascom’s TEMS™
business.
The TEMS Portfolio is the most widely used network testing,
monitoring and optimization platform. Deployed by the world’s top
20 mobile network operators, major infrastructure suppliers and
network engineering services providers, TEMS solutions monitor
wireless networks and assure quality of service while optimizing
performance.
The growing demand for high-speed wireless services presents
increasing CapEx and OpEx challenges to mobile network operators
who need to maximize the potential of their networks whilst
implementing new technologies such as LTE, Small Cells, VoLTE and
ultimately 5G. InfoVista’s acquisition of TEMS will strengthen its
ability to offer innovative solutions for mobile network
performance analytics, indoor network design and optimization, and
active service testing.
InfoVista was recently acquired by the private equity investment
firm Apax Partners, with the stated aim of establishing InfoVista
as the undisputed world leader in the network performance
orchestration software market. The acquisition of TEMS will be a
significant step towards that goal. It will see InfoVista nearly
double in size, with approximately USD $200M in revenue and improve
the group’s global presence, particularly in the USA and in
Asia.
The acquisition of TEMS will complement the recent acquisitions
of Mentum, Aexio and Ipanema, broadening the amount of network data
and intelligence that can be used to improve the network,
applications and user experience.
