C Spire Wireless has selected Devicescape’s Curator Service to help its mobile customers to better manage data usage and ensure superior connectivity.
The Devicescape Curator Service allows users to gain automatic access to the company’s growing Curated Virtual Network (CVN) of over 12 million high-quality, public Wi-Fi hotspots, which are continuously QoE tested in real-time to ensure they meet C Spire’s requirements for a carrier-grade quality experience. Devicescape’s Curator Client, working together with the Curator Service Platform in the cloud, identifies the best available connection at any given time and connects to it, resulting in simplified connectivity and increased overall Wi-Fi usage.
C Spire customers can download the free WiFi On app from the Google Play store on any Android-powered smartphone with the 2.2 (Froyo) or later mobile operating system. The app also will come preloaded on new C Spire Android-powered smartphones, including two that will be arriving soon on the company’s 4G LTE network – the Samsung Galaxy S 4 and the HTC One. The app prompts users to add their own home Wi-Fi networks, automatically connects to public hotspots when available and saves battery power on smartphones and tablets by turning the device’s Wi-Fi radio signal off when it isn’t available or strong enough to provide a quality experience.
C Spire Wireless offers a suite of personalized wireless services and premier mobile communications devices to nearly one million subscribers. The carrier is based in Ridgeland, Mississippi.
“Our priority is to deliver a personalized, high quality wireless experience to our customers and offer services that anticipate their needs,” said Kevin Hankins, chief operating officer for C Spire Wireless. “As customers use their devices for more services and applications that require data, implementing Devicescape’s service will help them better manage data while improving the quality and speed of their total data experience. We’ve been an industry leader for over two decades by introducing new services that help customers get the most value and benefit from their wireless plan. Selecting Devicescape’s service will allow us to continue that trend.”
