24i announces deployments with T-Mobile Czech Republic and Slovak Telekom

Turn-key streaming app developer 24i has signed deployment deals with T-Mobile Czech Republic and Slovak Telekom.

The deals will provide IPTV and TV Anywhere video experiences to T-Mobile TV GO, Magio GO and Digi GO customers in the Czech Republic and Slovakia.

The deployment has now gone live on iOS, Android, Android TV, web and Smart TVs from Samsung. It is additionally available on Linux and Android IPTV set-top-boxes (STBs).

The platform gives a single code base approach across all three of the T-Mobile Czech Republic and Slovak Telekom services which includes data-driven content optimisation, discovery and engagement tools including recommendations, analytics, targeted content and audience measurement.

Marcel Šatánek, Head of PM connected home and terminal management at Slovak Telekom said: “24i Smart Operator provides us with a productized solution that provides a next-generation, personalised video experience for each subscriber.

“By combining the functionality to provide IPTV and TV Everywhere, 24i saves us time and effort managing our services and the power and flexibility of their solution enables us to provide our customers with an incredible video experience on all devices, both now and in the future.”

Martijn van Horssen, joint CEO of 24i, said: “I am thrilled that Slovak Telekom is the first, large-scale multinational to deploy our new, next-generation Smart Operator product. We worked very closely with the Slovak Telekom and T-Mobile Czech Republic project teams to ensure that our platform provides all the functionality they need, as well new features that really excite customers such as continue watching (cross-platform), binge viewing, view showtimes and recordings to a STB or the cloud.

“We’re looking forward to ensuring that the T-Mobile Czech Republic and Slovak Telekom video experiences we are powering continue to excite and attract consumers throughout the region.”
