The submitted project: m2selfrepair
» m2selfrepair is a diagnosis and repair software
that identifies and
corrects errors related to the Internet in real time. mquadr.at adapts its repair software to the needs of its
customers, as each ISP has specific requirements and technologies. After installation by the end user it is designed to
run in the background constantly, while using negligible system resources.
Its main aim: reduction of calls to Customer Support. An ISP’s customers stay online at all times, therefore customer
care costs are reduced greatly, and ARPU is increased at the same time.
The two core components of m2selfrepair are:
- R.I.S. (Realtime Intelligent Selfrepair) – R.I.S, instantly notifying users of errors the moment they
arise.
- D.O.D. (Diagnosis On Demand) – With D.O.D. users can manually perform a complete system check for all Internet
services, including email accounts.
When an error is detected, R.I.S. and D.O.D. offer to repair the faulty settings immediately. In case of errors that
cannot be repaired automatically (e.g. incorrect wiring of hardware) animated visualizations and context sensitive help
provide guidance for manual repair.
Currently the three major ISPs to use m2selfrepair with all of its main components are: KPN – the leading
telecommunications and ICT service provider in The Netherlands, A1 Telekom Austria AG – the leading Austrian
telecommunications company, and Swisscom (Schweiz) AG – the largest ISP in Switzerland.
