A unified management platform to support your needs when delivering broadband, Wi-Fi and IoT services

One MaestroACS to manage them all

MaestroACS is a CPE management system that spans the complete lifecycle for a multitude of device types in home network environments. E.g. standard broadband gateways from any vendor, advanced Wi-Fi mesh extenders and residential platforms for IoT functionality.

It provides one single interface for managing millions of devices from hundreds of different vendors instead of managing millions of devices from hundreds of vendor specific interfaces. The flexible onboarding process for new device types allows for agile integration, testing and evaluation. Benefits for operators are improved efficiency and operational cost savings.

A complete CPE lifecycle management

The MaestroACS system spans the complete life cycle of CPEs with:

  • All in one management platform for CPE devices, Wi-Fi mesh extenders and IoT devices
  • Vendor agnostic for fast onboarding
  • Subscriber centric monitoring, alarms and proactive care
  • Wi-Fi and mesh management
  • Seamless integration for Portals, IoT and OSS/BSS
  • Bi-data collection
  • Scalable with high availability support, for management of millions of devices

Flexible and scalable interactions

MaestroACS has a proven track record of over 20 years from more than thirty tier 1-3 operators managing millions of devices. The system scales cost efficiently; from smaller cases with under 100,000 devices, to larger ones with several million devices. It enables flexible and scalable interactions with a large number of devices for provisioning tasks, fault handling and real-time subscriber support.

The MaestroACS is delivered as:

  • On premises (virtualized or dedicated hardware) where the Internet Service Provider owns the complete system. As the MaestroACS handles vast quantities of data related to user behavior, considering data privacy, this is the preferred MaestroACS configuration.
  • On public cloud (AWS, Google, Azure or similar).
  • Software license as a back-end component in the EnsemblePRO product family.

Take the first step now

Do you have a hard time navigating cloud, K8s, containers, microservices, ONAP? We know it can be difficult, so let us help you sort out any questions mark you might have.

The buzz right now is around containers and an app-enabled ‘smart gateway’. While we’ve always been advocates of this model (we’ve had an app-store for IOWRT for nearly 10 years), the hardware, memory, and operator resources are finally there to realize this.

IOPSYS

Depending on where you are as a CSP, you are better positioned to compete if you have a much more open system. You can’t be competitive in a fast-moving landscape if you buy software from a vendor where it’s not open-source, and you can’t impact the code

Senior Business Leader

Today, many service providers and gateway manufacturers share common challenges in sustaining siloed software platforms for their hardware. Relying on proprietary software has many hidden costs to consider.

IOPSYS

I saw that OpenWrt is a perfect base for our gateway; all the basics are already in place with a good operating system we could use. We have the ability to put our application on top.
