Ventocom is a Mobile Virtual Network Enabler (MVNE) with four MVNO brands that deliver services tailored to different consumer segments. Launched in 2015, HoT (Hofer Telekom) leads the virtual network operator market in Austria and Slovenia. HoT’s success is due, in part, to addressing the lack of post-paid benefits that prepaid customers experience with other providers.
Ventocom’s other brands are equally successful, providing tailored offers for regional and financial market segments through LIWEST Mobile, a cooperation with a regional fixed-line provider and Raiffeisen Mobile. The latter, Raiffeisen, Austria’s second largest bank, offers packages suited to the needs of its banking clients.
Ventocom approached Squire Technologies with the task of replacing an incumbent DRA/DEA (Diameter Routing Agent / Diameter Edge Agent). The existing Diameter solutions supplied by ZTE hampered their growth.
Subsequently, Squire Technologies’ DRA/DEA solution was deployed to handle charging traffic from over 1.6 million subscribers across their major MVNOs. The solution was integrated into their sophisticated Online Charging Systems (OCS), which covers multiple nodes for various service types, such as Voice, SMS, Data and VoLTE.
‘We were thrilled with the flexibility of Squire Technologies’ DRA/DEA solution, which seamlessly integrated with our MNOs. We expect the solution to last long into the future thanks to its versatility.
‘The team was very responsive to our needs and delivered the project two weeks ahead of schedule. So, we feel positive about this new partnership.’
Ernst Kellner, Head of Solution at Ventocom GmbH
‘The team at Ventocom were great to work with. From the start, they provided all the information we needed to deliver the project efficiently.
‘Ventocom is a prime example of how to approach the MVNO market, and we’re delighted to be part of their ongoing success.’
Ben Teversham, Sales Manager at Squire Technologies
