MVNO and MVNE

What is the Difference Between a MVNA MVNO and MVNE? +Why Telgoo5 Software is Pivotal

When it comes to the world of telecom services, there is a lot of jargon to learn. The acronym-heavy language can look like greek at first, but once the vocab is demystified everything can be understood. A major part of the difficulty is that a lot of the acronyms look similar, but the systems they represent have distinct differences. Today, we both define and highlight the differences between MVNAs, MVNOs, and MVNEs, along with explaining why Telgoo5 software is pivotal for each.

MVNA

MVNA stands for Mobile Virtual Network Aggregators. It describes a telecom provider that operates in a wholesale capacity. An MVNA provides mobile and data services to Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs, to be covered in the next section), who then provide billable services to their end users. MVNAs can be challenging to manage, which is where the Telgoo5 platform steps in. Telgoo5 streamlines the billing and operational side of any MVNA business. We help to ensure that services get delivered and that the operator gets paid. Our end-to-end cloud based SaaS platform powers the entire telecom industry, including MVNAs.

MVNO

MVNO stands for Mobile Virtual Network Operators. It describes a telecom service provider that does not actually own the wireless network infrastructure it uses to provide services to its customers. It is common for MVNOs to access mobile data services via MVNA. If you have access to mobile data, there is a chance you are accessing it through an MVNO. Every day, people interact with the telecom business without thinking much about the systems in place to make their connection possible. Telgoo5 offers a fantastic support system to MVNOs. Our modular platform offers an Omni Channel CRM, billing, online charging, and payment engines that drive the global networks that users lean on every single day for data access.

MVNE

MVNE stands for Mobile Virtual Network Enablers. It describes a company that provides network infrastructure like provisioning, administration, operations support systems, and business support systems to MVNOs, who then provide data services to their clients. MVNEs do not actually interact with end-users. While MVNEs are busy supporting MVNOs, Telgoo5 supports MVNEs with our top-notch AT integration that anticipates MVNE needs before they even appear. Telgoo5 appreciates the complexities of the Mobile Virtual Network market and can support companies that provide data services in any capacity.

You may have noticed that the acronyms described above are similar because all three business types operate in the same space – the Mobile Virtual Network space. In many cases, an MVNA provides data to an MVNO, who leans on an MVNE for operational support. The user performing a Google search on his mobile device will have no idea how many companies are involved in making his search happen…unless something goes wrong. Telgoo5 provides an end-to-end cloud-based platform that powers everyone in the MVNE space, with the goal of always providing uninterrupted service to the end-user.

Do not slog through this complicated space alone. Lean on Telgoo5 for all of your telecom needs. We will smooth out the process and make sure you look good along the way.
