OUR HAPPY CLIENTS
WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY ABOUT TELECONTRAN !!
Excellent introductory course presented by an excellent instructor who was so engaging and supportive that I did not hesitate to ask questions; His answers and presentation was great and understandable.
Very well delivered course that clearly explains the 4G and beyond technology.
Good explanation with all the information related to LTE Evolution to beyond 4G, 4.5G network and the Evolution towards 5G network and graph on powerpoint.
The trainer explained LTE, LTE cell planning and 5G technologies in extremely interesting manner and I must say that the discussion during the workshop was simply excellent.
A lot of discussions were there during the workshop and the trainer shared his knowledge and experiences in Cell planning along with LTE KPIs which was very much informative for our company.
