Ericsson Network Manager now live and managing part of Swisscom's 4G LTE network

Operators are eager to adopt Ericsson Network Manager early in order to provide feedback on its functional evolution and to reevaluate and enhance their network domain operations and workflows.
The Swisscom deployment marks the first time that Ericsson Network Manager has gone live in an operator network.
Patrick Weibel, Senior Architect Wireless, Swisscom, says: "Ericsson is a long-time trusted partner for Swisscom. We have chosen to adopt Ericsson Network Manager early to provide feedback on its functional development and also leverage the Ericsson Network Manager's capabilities that are critical to our network and operational transformation."
