5G
4G/5G routers are in demand across the channel and in almost every vertical market our partners operate in. As intelligent mobile data becomes faster, more reliable and more widespread, end-users are choosing it over fixed-line connectivity solutions for its operational and commercial advantages. A good example of this is the PSTN switch-off. There are millions of end-points across the UK that will use 4G/5G connectivity over more expensive SOGEA connections. 3G sunsetting is also driving demand for 4G/5G services. There are still millions of devices connected to 3G networks in the UK which need to move to 4G/5G or the services will simply stop working.
Value Add
It is important that resellers and MSPs include hardware that adds value to their proposition. As an example, we provide a range of routers and gateways that Jola has developed layers of automation and management into. All of our devices are provisioned and managed within our real-time portal Mobile Manager®. Our partners can view usage, signal strength, and uptime statistics. They can reboot devices and pair routers with SIMs directly. We have also added a Device-as-a-Service model (DaaS) to our offering, which provides a CAPEX-free commercial model with the added benefit of in-term upgrades and advance replacements that add considerable value over upfront purchases.
Best Vendors
It's important to work with a vendor that allows you to differentiate your offering and helps you to find and win profitable deals. Selling solutions as opposed to box shifting will give you the edge when you’re in a competitive bid situation. Jola’s routers are suitable for mobile broadband and large-scale IoT rollouts. Devices are pre-configured with the Jola App, allowing auto-configuration. As a result, there was no need for manual configuration on-site; routers are delivered to site, ready to install, saving valuable time and set-up costs. To bolster security, Jola preconfigures security measures into the devices, to prevent third parties from accessing the routers. Routers are managed in our real-time management portal – Mobile Manager®.
