Syniverse Earns Industry Honors in Roaming for Mobile Operators

Kaleido Intelligence Gives Syniverse Highest Honors in Roaming Categories

TAMPA, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Syniverse, the world’s most connected company, today announced it has been identified by Kaleido Intelligence as the top overall leader in mobile roaming out of the more than 35 vendors they evaluated.

Kaleido Intelligence’s Vendor Hub presents the most detailed competitive intelligence available on mobile roaming. The report, which is released twice per year, highlights the strengths of vendors across the following seven services:

• IPX (IP eXchange)
• Data and Financial Clearing
• Analytics and Value-Added Services
• Roaming Hub
• Steering of Roaming
• Fraud Management and Security
• Sponsored Roaming

In addition to being ranked the overall roaming leader, Syniverse was also the only vendor to achieve six “champion” rankings, their highest category, for IPX, Data and Financial Clearing, Analytics and Value-Added Services, Roaming Hub, Steering of Roaming, and Fraud Management and Security, in addition to one “high-flyer” ranking for Sponsored Roaming.

In August, Syniverse announced that it would go public through a business combination with M3-Brigade Acquisition II Corp. (NYSE: MBAC). Upon closing of the transaction, Syniverse will be listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker “SYNV.”

Nitin Bhas, Chief of Strategy and Insights at Kaleido Intelligence, commented that “Kaleido assessed all vendors on a level playing field and all Champion vendors are best positioned to enable continued roaming innovation, future readiness and new business opportunities.”

Syniverse’s honors were determined based on feedback provided by mobile operators to Kaleido Intelligence and a detailed analysis conducted by Kaleido analysts. The criteria used by the analysts centered on company positioning, roaming product leadership, strength and quality of the service offering, innovation, and future business prospects.

Earlier this year, Kaleido Intelligence identified Syniverse as a “Best Placed Vendor to enable 5G Roaming for Operators.” Syniverse provides a 5G-ready end-to-end roaming portfolio which leverages the IPX global platform that simplifies and monetizes roaming transactions for mobile operators and their mobile users.
