Femtocell Product Scorecard

Let’s track Femtocell product success as a combination of
 (1) what Analysts think of the product (Rankings), and 
 (2) what the Operators think of the market (Deployment).

Vendor/Product Ranking: Each vendor’s product ranking is available from a study by ABI Research (unfortunately, they do not permit anyone to post an excerpt or image from their report without paying a big license fee, so you have to click to see the data that Ubiquisys has paid to show. When you get to the Ubiquisys site, you’ll understand why they paid to make the ABI report public as it is extremely favorable). In case the above link expires (and it will), here is a permanent link to the Press Release that summarizes the ABI Research report. Each vendor’s products are ranked in detail on Innovation and Implementation in the ABI Research report (see the “Rankings” section in the ABI study). (For definition of how these rankings were assessed, please see the definitions here or  in the report summary). Please see ABI Research for their ongoing, detailed analysis (I find that the have some of the best analysis and ongoing coverage, along with Peter Jarich of Current Analysis).

Vendor/Product Deployment: Each vendor’s success in the marketplace is available here, in my ongoing report on market deployments.
