Google’s Project Fi announcement is clear proof that MVNOs can play a big role in the proliferation of WiFi calling as a "must-have" offering that mobile operators need to gain subscribers. MVNOs just need a way to launch it quickly without adding to their CAPEX strain.
As the 4th annual MVNO Industry Summit gets underway in Dallas today, brand differentiation and QoS are sure to be topics of concern.
In recent months I've read multiple clippings and posts about MVNOs “finally getting short codes” or “finally getting them to work” much to the delight of their subscribers because of the convenience they bring to their lives. What concerns me most is the use of the word “finally”. True, integrating and establishing short code service can be complex due to all the moving parts and stake holders involved, especially for an MVNO or a smaller operator. But, with over seven years of experience in aggregating the aggregators and bringing CSC to MNO/MVNOs (while launching them in days instead of months) we can say empathetically that we understand.
