Enabling a publicly available internet through UniFi project
SBB is a part of United Group, which is a regional company that gathers telecommunications operators in the countries of ex-Yugoslavia, namely: Telemach Slovenia,Telemach Bosnia and Herzegovina, Telemach Montenegro, Tele 2 Croatia, operator of satellite television Total TV and NetTV Plus, as well as United Media and CAS Media that deal with communications and advertising. In 2014, SBB introduced the UniFi project – a unique initiative that would bring WiFi internet access to users on a number of locations within cities. The internet access would be enabled through access points with community home gateways across cities. Users would have the ability to access the WiFi through a uniquely made UniFi application and enjoy internet wherever they are in the given city.
The project required building a stable IP policy management and charging control solution that would handle authentication, authorization and charging for the users of UniFi WiFi. Logate was able to technically support the entire customer experience of UniFi WiFi, by building UniFi mobile application for android and iOS, and developing a Captive portal for user authentication.
