Actix achieves milestone in wireless network performance engineering market

Now supporting 10,000 optimization licenses worldwide

Actix, a global leader for software and solutions that enhance mobile network customer experience while reducing the total cost of ownership, has crossed the 10,000 installed license high-water mark, emphasizing its position in wireless network performance engineering (NPE) software solutions.

Actix has been expanding its software product range organically through R&D with record expenditures targeted for 2007, including a major expansion of its Dresden, Germany based technology development centre.

In addition the successful acquisition's of leading automated network optimization companies Radioplan and ComOpt has enabled Actix to offer tools and systems for all mobile networks and technologies across all stages of deployment and operation covering vastly different business approaches and requirements.

"The entire ecosystem of network performance engineering has evolved and changed.  The size and complexity of the networks are increasing, with rollouts of new standards and technology presenting enormous business challenges to the network engineer.  Coupled with the intense pressure to reduce both capital and operational spending it is more imperative than ever that engineering teams have flexible and reliable systems to help them manage the change and continue to provide the best user experience possible at the lowest cost," said Alex Hawker, CEO of Actix.

"Both our number one leadership position and the value we provide in helping operators solve real business problems is demonstrated by the amazing number of installed licenses, and it shows how vital Actix solutions are in the daily battle to achieve outstanding quality of experience for the end user."

Actix's solutions for wireless operators automatically optimize the total cost of ownership of a wireless network, reducing both CAPEX and OPEX while rapidly and accurately improving the quality of experience offered to the end customer.  The deployment of Actix solutions has saved customers across the globe literally billions of dollars; one of the world's largest operators recently achieved savings of more than $600 million while continuing to improve coverage and reduce interference in their network - savings directly attributable to Actix solutions.

Of particular note Actix has recently been undertaking significant projects for major operators looking to introduce the next generation of innovative and desirable combined personal music players and mobile phone / web browsing devices, with 10 million such devices expected to ship over the next 18 months all using the so called EDGE or 2.75G technology for broad band mobile access the focus on network quality and performance has never been stronger.

Actix solutions help wireless network operators in all phases of the network lifecycle, from enabling a more cost-efficient initial deployment to assisting in the rapid solution of problem areas by unifying the complete set of network and service information available to network engineers into a single platform for analysis.
