For telecom operators still using Ericsson Network Engineer (ENE), the looming 2027 end-of-life deadline is forcing a critical decision: Where do we move next? While finding a replacement is important, one concern rises above all others – data migration.
How do you transfer years of complex network data without losing critical information, disrupting operations, or introducing errors?
At VertiGIS, we understand that migration is more than just a data transfer; it’s ensuring that your network inventory is more accurate, structured, and efficient than ever before. That’s where VertiGIS ConnectMaster™ for ArcGIS comes in.
More Than Just a Migration – It’s an Upgrade
Moving from ENE to VertiGIS ConnectMaster for ArcGIS isn’t just about keeping operations running; it’s a chance to cleanse outdated data, streamline workflows, and enhance network modeling capabilities. Instead of carrying over inefficiencies, this transition allows telecom operators to:
✔ Eliminate Redundant Data & Improve Accuracy
Over time, ENE databases accumulate outdated records and inconsistencies. A well-planned migration ensures that only the most relevant, high-quality data is transferred – leading to better performance and more reliable decision-making.
✔ Take Advantage of a More Flexible, Object-Oriented Data Model
Unlike ENE’s relational database, VertiGIS ConnectMaster for ArcGIS organizes network elements dynamically, reducing complexity while improving speed and scalability. This structure supports modern network technologies like 5G, fiber, and hybrid architectures – ensuring your system is built for the future.
✔ Ensure Smooth Data Relationships & Enhanced Network Insights
Our migration process ensures that all key network elements, equipment, and connections remain properly linked, improving network visualization, planning, and operational efficiency.
A Proven Migration Process That Puts You in Control
We understand that switching platforms can feel like a challenge – but with VertiGIS, it doesn’t have to be. Our structured, expert-led migration approach ensures:
✔ Seamless Data Transition – Automated validation and transformation ensure data integrity from start to finish.
✔ Minimal Disruptions – Careful planning and execution keep your operations running smoothly.
✔ Guided Optimization – Our team helps you refine, clean, and enhance your network inventory for long-term success.
✔ Future-Proof Results – You’re not just migrating – you’re building a more powerful, scalable network management system.
