MTS selects Atoll for 5G planning

Vincent Spiegel, Head of Global Sales at Forsk says: “We’re working for about 14 years on the Russian market with our partner AZymuth, and we serve many operators in the Russian and CIS region. 5G opens new opportunities for us and we’re proud to now count MTS among our customers. This shows that Atoll meets the particularities of this market, which are to be able to store and manage the huge amount of data networks required to model a network in this immense country.”

Vladimir Bolshakov, Head of RAN Design Department says: “Within the RFP process for selection of the new radio network planning solution for us, we made a detailed comparison of the software provided by the participants in the competition, that covered the accuracy of the RAT modelling, reliability of results given by optimization modules such as the ACP and calculation performance. Atoll demonstrated the most appropriate results to our requirements and became a clear choice for us. As we operate a network on a very large country, the possibility of making calculations on a very large scale as well as wide capabilities for complex automation of the planning processes make Atoll a future-proof solution in terms of further network growth. The availability of a professional local support provided by AZymuth is a key factor for successful implementation and operation of the solution.
