CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 31, 2012-- NetScout® Systems, Inc., today announced the nGenius® Service Assurance Solution was named “Best User Experience and Policy Management” solution in the Best of 4G Awards. Winners were announced at the Best of 4G Awards Ceremony at 4G World, the only conference and expo covering the entire ecosystem of next-generation 4G mobile broadband technologies. The Best of 4G Awards, now in its fourth year, recognizes businesses and organizations that are leading innovation and driving the adoption of 4G mobile broadband. The awards program includes a wide range of categories and was open to all members of the mobile ecosystem. All submissions were reviewed by an independent panel of judges comprised of the industry’s leading analysts and academics.

“The Best of 4G Awards celebrates excellence in 4G innovation,” says Joe Braue, general manager of 4G World. “The caliber of entries received in this year’s awards was very high, and we congratulate NetScout for demonstrating outstanding innovation and leadership with the nGenius Service Assurance Solution.”

The nGenius Service Assurance Solution provides mobile operators with actionable and granular visibility into subscribers, services and network traffic with simplified service-centric workflows optimized for IP networks. Addressing the service delivery management challenges resulting from growing mobile data and multimedia traffic volumes, the nGenius solution analyzes both data plane and control plane traffic to reveal how network, application and service enabler interdependencies affect overall service performance and impact the subscriber experience. Operators can visualize complete subscriber sessions in real-time, from the data center, to the mobile core, to the cell site to instantly expose specific areas of the network with poor performance or service failures. Consequently, mobile operators gain real-time and historical views into service delivery performance across 3G and LTE/EPC IP networks to obtain rich business and operational intelligence and assure the subscriber experience.

“Just as IP has transformed service provider networks, NetScout has transformed the way service providers assure service delivery over next generation IP networks,” said Steven Shalita, vice president, marketing for NetScout. “NetScout is honored to have been recognized by such a distinguished panel of judges for the Best of 4G Awards. We remain deeply committed to the service provider market and to driving technology innovation that delivers a uniquely differentiated unified service delivery management platform for 3G, LTE and mobile cloud environments to address the challenges of the next wave of mobile network innovation.”
