Mobile is a new frontier of managed services growth. In recent years, many MSPs have made the leap to become Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs).
One of the biggest challenges for providers of fleet mobile or business mobile services, is competing against low-cost retail plans. It can be difficult for SMB clients to see the value of business-grade mobile.
This is where the data pooling capability comes in.
Simply put, data pooling (a.k.a. data sharing) allows MSPs to provide a business with a generous amount of data that can be used by up to 300 staff.
Instead of having individual plans for each staff member and device, all the data is pooled together and used as needed.
For small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs), this feature makes it easier to manage mobile data. It can also be a compelling value pitch for MSPs – as clients aren’t paying for extra data they’re not using. Customers can pool data across Mobile and Data Only Plans (Mobile Broadband), as well as across 4G and 5G plans.
Data pooling helps MSPs and business MVNOs offer a service that’s distinct from standard retail plans, providing clients with a more tailored solution.
By consolidating data usage across multiple devices or users, mobile providers can create flexible pricing models that are more attractive to customers, giving them an edge over competitors.
This unique offering allows MSPs to stand out in the increasingly crowded MVNO market while delivering greater value to clients.

With data pooling, service providers can offer a flexible solution that works for businesses from 5 staff, through to hundreds. Data Pools can bein creased by upgrading some individual plans to higher limits so that it can be pooled.
Plus, scale is seamless. As client needs evolve, MSPs can easily adjust the included included data pool to meet changing requirements. If your clients add new staff or devices, it’s easy to ship new SIM cards and digital eSIMs.
This flexibility allows MSPs to deliver tailored solutions without the complexity of adjusting individual plans, ensuring they can meet the needs of businesses at any stage.
Data Pooling is compelling pitch for SMB clients wishing to cut telecom costs. Instead of paying for individual data plans, where data is often left unused each month, businesses can pool data across multiple SIMs.
This ensures that lighter users aren't overpaying for unused data, while heavier data users have access to plenty of data, without the risk of overage charges.
This approach not only helps the MSP offer a tailored solution but also strengthens client relationships by providing a flexible and affordable plan that fits the specific needs of the business.
MSPs also have access to controls which includes setting data limits on individual services, pool usage reporting, etc. All available via our Octane platform.
