Amdocs Named Pacesetter in 2023 eSIM Orchestration Rankings
Recent Counterpoint Research report ranks Amdocs as leading vendor for a second year in a row.
Counterpoint Research has ranked Amdocs as the number one vendor for platforms in its recently released CORE Scorecard – Global eSIM Orchestration Landscape report.
Amdocs have emerged as 'Pacesetter' from the Global eSIM Orchestration COmpetitive, Ranking, and Evaluation (CORE) evaluation, according to the 2023 edition of Counterpoint Research’s Global eSIM Landscape report.
Commenting on the eSIM provisioning rankings and the competitive landscape, Research Analyst Varun Gupta commented, "The eSIM industry is undergoing significant transition as more devices such as Smartphones, Smartwatches, Tablets and Laptops are coming with eSIM support. Apple recently launched its latest iPad Pro and iPad Air with eSIM-only support for cellular variant of the devices. Travel eSIM has emerged as a popular alternative for international travelers who are always on the go, providing seamless connectivity in most parts of the world. The demand for eSIM orchestration has rapidly increased as the industry shifts towards offering a fully digital experience for consumers. Device transfer has become a key use case for eSIM ecosystem players, driven by the growing adoption of eSIM-enabled smartphones, particularly in the North American market."
Gupta further added, "We have analyzed and evaluated key companies in the eSIM value chain using our proprietary CORE framework, which maps active players according to their capabilities and success in the ecosystem. In this dynamic market environment, our evaluation criteria also changed, and we added multiple new criterion such as multi-tenancy, automation, support for MVNOs and others.
The capability covers criteria such as SIM lifecycle management, BSS/OSS integration, Identity management, Analytics and support for Entitlement Servers while the ecosystem part covers criteria such as geographical reach, partnerships, and platform deployments. Parameters such as Analytics, Automation, Authentication and Entitlement Integration are increasingly becoming important for orchestration players to offer best capabilities through their platforms.
Counterpoint Research's Global eSIM Landscape report is the most comprehensive report involving all the leading players in the eSIM ecosystem with multiple interviews and research spanning more than three months.
