ISPs need reliable infrastructure to serve their communities, and that means staying ahead of issues before they affect service. Managing network devices, assigning IPs, and responding to incidents manually can slow teams down and create gaps. Sonar helps simplify this with automation tools built to reduce complexity and improve responsiveness across technical operations.

Assigning IP addresses and managing network access doesn’t need to be a manual process. Sonar automates IP assignments, data rate limits, and service access controls by integrating directly with provisioning servers and providers. This saves time, reduces errors, and ensures consistent service delivery across your network.

Sonar’s pollers keep a constant watch on your network endpoints. By regularly checking device status and performance, pollers help identify issues early, before they become outages. This monitoring layer gives teams the visibility needed to maintain network health without constant manual checks.

When something goes wrong, your team needs to know immediately. Sonar allows you to set up automated incident alerts so that the right people are notified as soon as a problem is detected. Whether it’s a service interruption or hardware issue, the system helps you respond faster and minimize downtime.

Setting up new devices or customer services manually can lead to errors and delays. Sonar’s provisioning tools allow ISPs to automate this process, from device configuration to activation, making onboarding faster and more consistent.

Sonar’s open API is built on GraphQL, and allows complete access to instance data. This gives ISPs the flexibility to integrate with other systems and extend automation even further. Whether you’re syncing data with a monitoring tool or building out a custom workflow, the API allows your team to connect the dots and streamline operations without starting from scratch.

Reliable service starts with well-managed infrastructure. Sonar’s automation tools help ISPs stay ahead of technical issues, speed up deployment, and maintain network performance—all while freeing up valuable time for technical teams to focus on improvements instead of putting out fires.
