In Just One Year, MidSouth Fiber Achieves a 248% Increase in Mobile App Adoption, Growing the Value of Its Brand While Reducing Trouble Calls and Exciting Members


Calix, Inc. (NYSE: CALX) today announced that MidSouth Fiber Internet (MidSouth Fiber) has seen a 248 percent growth in the adoption of its CommandIQ® app?personalized under its own brand as MidSouth Fiber Internet?since January 2021. MidSouth Fiber members enjoy fiber internet service with speeds up to 1 Gigabit thanks to the Intelligent Access EDGE (powered by the Network Innovation Platform). They have also embraced the Revenue EDGE, which includes the GigaSpire® BLAST family of systems, CommandIQ®, EDGE Suites, Calix Support Cloud (Support Cloud), and Calix Marketing Cloud (Marketing Cloud), along with Calix Customer Success Services. These end-to-end solutions enable MidSouth Fiber to deliver the ultimate member experience while lowering operating expenses (OPEX) and accelerating their time to market to grow the brand.

A subsidiary of MidSouth Electric Cooperative, MidSouth Fiber partnered with Calix and GLDS in late 2019 to roll out a cutting-edge fiber network to provide broadband connectivity across the co-op's six-county service area in southern Texas. MidSouth Fiber connected its first customer in June 2020 and has been extending broadband service to its members at a record pace.

Since launching its personalized app a year ago, MidSouth Fiber has achieved a 70 percent app attach rate among its managed Wi-Fi subscribers by aligning the entire organization around creating the ultimate member experience. This increase is attributed to a new standard onboarding process that has onsite field technicians work with its members to download the app at the time of installation. Members use the intuitive, easy-to-use app to set up and manage their entire connected home experience. This includes setting up their GigaSpire BLAST Wi-Fi 6 systems with self-serve features that empower them to tackle tasks such as resetting their SSID or Wi-Fi password, prioritizing traffic to devices that matter most, or troubleshooting common issues without having to call the helpdesk.

MidSouth Fiber is exciting subscribers and growing its value in many ways.

"At MidSouth, we are excited about the possibilities that fiber to the home provides to our community," said Justin Stapleton, division manager of member services at MidSouth Electric Cooperative. "Now members across our entire footprint can enjoy the same amazing experience that was once only available to those living in the big city, allowing them to work and learn from home, and so much more. Calix has been the ideal partner for us in this journey, providing the industry-leading network infrastructure, solutions, and services that form the foundation of our offering, as well as the resources and tools that have allowed us to get to market quickly and deliver value to our members."

"MidSouth Fiber is yet another customer achieving remarkable results in the first year by leveraging end-to-end Calix solutions to simplify their business, excite members, and grow their brand," said Michael Weening, chief operating officer and president at Calix. "Broadband services are as essential to communities today as power was 100 years ago. MidSouth Fiber has seized this critical opportunity by building a future-proofed network that will support a vast array of services and transform how members work, learn, and live for generations to come."
