Synchronoss and Bricsys Partner to Manage Communications Networks

Synchronoss Technologies, Inc. has set up a partnership with Bricsys, a Hexagon company, giving Synchronoss spatialSUITE customers ability to select BricsCAD as their CAD interface. Bricsys offers single, volume and network licensing agreements—including floating network licenses—that can be subscription or perpetual. The new agreement also establishes a reseller relationship enabling Synchronoss to offer BricsCAD directly to new and existing customers.

Synchronoss spatialSUITE provides communications service providers access to a broad range of network asset information, including physical locations, specifications, attributes, connectivity and capacity. BricsCAD is used by network architects who work in Synchronoss spatialNET, an engineering design and management solution that sits at the core of spatialSUITE. spatialNET enables network planners, designers and engineers to combine the use of industry-standard DWG files for 2G drafting and 3G modeling with the power of artificial intelligence to quickly and accurately visualize, create and manage communication network asset data and workflows.

David Bryant, Product Director for Synchronoss, said the partnership with Bricsys delivers to spatialNET customers a feature-rich solution that is more cost-effective than other CAD solutions. “This agreement with Bricsys is especially significant considering that users have access to the same functionality and quality as other CAD offerings but at a dramatically lower cost and with more licensing flexibility,” he says.

“spatialNET users who choose BricsCAD gain world-class visualization capabilities via a responsive, high-performance graphical engine, with the ability to easily collaborate in a BricsCAD session and much more flexibility when it comes to software,” says Anna Maria Romeo, director of Partner Development for Bricsys.  “Equally important is that the integration of BricsCAD and spatialNET is seamless. Users will find 100 percent compatibility and instant access to all their CAD files, and no requirement for a complicated migration process.”

The Synchronoss spatialSUITE portfolio is used by various telecommunications companies, including the largest MSO in the United States, all the major network providers in Canada, and other telco and cable companies globally.
