There are several large mobile operators in Russia, which, in fact, divided the market among themselves. These are such well-known "giants" of the industry as MTS, MegaFon, Tele2, Beeline. A new and little-known company, which enters the market is quite difficult to entrenched here in view of the strongest competition. This can be done only with the help of loyalty to customers and carefully thought out. tariff plansattracting their availability.

This was done by the Yota operator, the reviews about which we will publish in this article. In addition, we will tell you the basic information about this company - its history, market seizure methods and the tariff plans that it offers to its customers.

History and general information

If you have not heard of such a company, then Yota (feedback confirms that many customers did not know about the existence of such an operator) is a relatively young player in the telecommunications market of Russia. It was founded in 2007 by investing SKARTEL LLC (legal entity, whose owned by the Yota brand) and JSC MegaFon (a major mobile operator, it certainly knows everything). Thus, it turned out a holding, which is engaged in the management of a relatively new mobile operator.

Despite the fact that the company can be said is a newcomer in the industry - the bond Yota (representatives of the representatives of the Group confirm this) extends to 48 regions of Russia. We are talking about the transmission of the signal in 4G network format, which support the distribution of high-speed mobile Internet. If you believe the official information of the operator, back in 2014 among the subscribers of Yota, the feedback of which we partially give further, there have been more than 1.2 million Russians. This is despite the fact that the first launch of the network took place quite recently - at the end of the summer of 2010. Agree, for mobile company This is very rapid development!

main feature

The question arises like the Yota operator, users of users about which we will publish below, was able to overcome such a high threshold for the number of subscribers for such a short time. It can be said right away that advertising and the right PR campaign played a certain proportion. But do not forget that the costs of other leading operators on media progress are colossal. Out of MTS, MegaFon and Beeline in the eyes of the consumer is very difficult! And here we come to main featureswhich has yota (mobile operator). Reviews indicate that all Internet packets available to subscribers are offered with unlimited traffic. That is, unlike competitors companies, Yota does not highlight a fixed amount of megabytes available for use. The subscriber can use wireless high-speed online access as much as he needs. Agree, it can not not bribe. Of course, each subscriber will think about whether it does not go to the service to this company.

Services

In addition to the Internet, Yota (feedback confirm) has in their arsenal and other services, the conditions for the provision of which look tempting in comparison with other companies. In particular, these are calls both to the numbers of your operator and on the phones of other companies, as well as SMS messages. This package is classic for any mobile operator, only the conditions for receiving services here are really more beneficial than the plans of competitors.

Internet for smartphone

Of course, one of the main advantages of the company is the Internet, at the expense of which subscribers use its services. W. Yota Internet (Reviews are repeatedly confirmed) is provided in unlimited quantities. If we talk about connecting for a smartphone, then the cost of it is 300 rubles per month. This is the base for the tariff that the subscriber chooses. The remaining services are provided in the form of options - the ability to get moments for calls, SMS, and so on.

For tablet

Internet connection for tablet computer Here is a more diverse - the client can choose one of the three tariff plans - this is noted even left about Yota reviews. The mobile network provider is capable of providing a connection at 1 Mbps per second at a price of 390 rubles, 3 Mbps - 590 and at the "maximum speed" (as indicated in the tariff description) for 790 rubles per month. Because we are talking about a service for a tablet computer, minutes to call, as well as SMS messages, according to the terms of the plan, are not provided.

For computer

Finally, the third tariff is the "Internet for Computer" plan. The conditions here differ from those mentioned above. First, the connection is carried out through the Yota modem, the reviews about which we will leave again. Secondly, the tariff designer allows the user to determine the speed on which the connection will be installed. Here several steps are provided here: the minimum is a speed of 512 kbps. At a price of 400 rubles / month, and the maximum is a tariff worth 1400 rubles per month of use. It also provides speed at the level of 15 Mbps at a price of 1350 rubles.

If the Subscriber cannot decide which to choose Yota Internet, reviews noted that the company goes on concessions and provides the ability to spend a test drive. Also, as indicated on the official website, the tariff change is allowed here at any time.

mobile connection

As we indicated above, in addition to the Internet, the operator is engaged in the provision of mobile services. It is available, of course, only as part of the "smartphone" tariff plan, and the subscriber can choose the amount of services provided in the same way as the Internet with the help of a special designer on the site. If you believe him, then 100 minutes on calls to other operators within Russia are worth 140 rubles, and 1200 minutes - 1290 rubles. The user can make a choice between 300, 600 and 900 minutes (prices change accordingly).

Another option is to connect unlimited SMS messages. The service is available for 50 rubles. Thus, after the subscriber finally selects all of its options and additions, it will be provided with the total cost of services that must be paid. Minimum is 440 rubles per month.

Smartphone YotaPhone2.

We know that Yota is a mobile operator. Reviews are noted that the company is engaged in the development of smartphones. The well-known Yota phone, it turns out, is not just a "thesis", but the product of the operator who is dedicated to this article. A device equipped with two screens - sensory and "ink" (the technology of so-called "electronic ink" applies - you can see it on portable books-readers). The first is used to perform the functions of the smartphone (by the way, the Android operating system is installed here. The second is an indicator of charging, hours, missed calls, SMS and other important functions. With it, you can also read books without harm to sight.

Yotaphone2 can be purchased at the operator's sales points, which can be found in your city (they are throughout the country). The cost of the device on the official site is indicated within 36 thousand rubles (for the white version) and 34 - for black. Here you can also purchase accessories for the device.

Modems Yota.

Besides mobile phone Own development, the company is also engaged in selling modems at low prices for their subscribers. The choice in the company catalog is quite wide - you can buy as just a USB modem for receiving the signal using a computer (about a thousand rubles) and a WiFi-router connected to the 4G network and distributed the Internet to the nearest devices. The cost of such a model reaches 4-6 thousand rubles, depending on the capabilities and bandwidth.

Here, for example, there is a modem of Yota Many. Reviews of it show that this is a device that accepts a wireless signal and can distribute it to 8 computers (tablets or phones) at the same time. Its cost is 4900 rubles. Having bought this model, you can significantly save on the Internet costs, separating traffic with your neighbors, for example.

As you show about the device Yota Many customer reviews, it is possible to order a device on the company's official website, or at the official point of sale.

How to connect?

If you read the tariff plans information this operator And they wanted to connect - to do it very simple. It is enough to purchase a starting package in one of the service items of subscribers - at least, so show about Yota reviews. Mobile communication This operator is really inexpensive, while the quality of services is at the height. So why not connect in this case?

A new player appeared - Yota. For a long time this corporation It was known as a provider of wireless Internet access. In the spectrum of services of the new operator, all those services that are claimed today, that is voice communication, SMS, as well as network access. The latter is characterized by uniminacy, and in absolutely real terms. If there is a restriction on traffic over the prepaid volume in the tarifications of other cellular operators, then YOTA does not use this approach at least now. What chances to entrenched on the Russian market has so young as Yota, mobile operator? What kind of prevailing reviews? What is the use of Yota services especially profitable for subscribers?

Access to the market

Actual entry to the market New mobile operator Yota carried out in August 2014. The issuance of SIM-cards under this brand began in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Vladimir, Tula and Far Eastern cities: Vladivostok and Khabarovsk. Interestingly, the preliminary applications for obtaining SIM-cards could serve in advance through the mobile application. At the same time, its own new status Yota ("Mobile Operator") announced in April. Before this for many years this organization He was mainly engaged in the provision of wireless Internet access services. Activities in this direction still maintained by the company: it sells the corresponding type branded modems. Therefore, for the unmistakable distinction of the two main types of services provided by the organization (mobile Internet and cellular communication), we will call our article as the "Yota-Mobile Operator" in our article. In turn, if it comes only about the mobile Internet, we will call the company "Yota Provider".

In the plans of the company - to ensure the presence of the brand as a service provider cellular communication In all regions of Russia. which is identified by the company Yota-mobile operator, - iPad-, iPhone- and Android enthusiasts. That is, those people who are accustomed to enjoy note also that Yota can be considered enough to consider an independent player of the cellular market. The fact is that this organization is a subsidiary of MegaFon. At the same time, as some analysts defined by others believe the largest corporations Segment (MTS and Beeline) Yota-mobile operator "Waving" can still.

Main tariffs

The tariff policy of the new cellular supplier is quite young. For example, at the time of entering the market, the company gave the opportunity to use only one rate, which includes 300 minutes of calls, unlimited Internet and any number of SMS for 750 rubles per month. Those that offers a Yota mobile operator, tariffs today, mainly differ in the number of calls to phones. That is, there is a "basic" monthly payment of 300 rubles, it guarantees unlimited Internet. In turn, you can pay and get an unlimited number of SMS for use. The minimum surcharge for voice calls is 140 rubles (100 minutes), maximum - 990 (1200 minutes).

Restrictions

Note that the SIM card from the new mobile operator is only suitable for smartphones, tablets and cell phones. You cannot connect it to the PC, you can use the Yota provider modem to access the Internet.

Devices in which the SIM card is fully functional, which has released a Yota-mobile operator, 4pda-type. Also, using mobile devices with a SIM-card from Yota, you can not "distribute" the Internet in wi-Fi mode. Some experts note that if the supplier detects violations to use the SIM card, the speed of access to the network can be reduced to 32 kbps. The truth is not quite understandable, as it will be done in practice.

At the same time, the company will introduce a similar limitation if it is found that the owner of the mobile device uses, for example, "torrents", or large files are loaded. In contrast to the definition of fact wi-Fi distributions, problems with the fixation of requests for trackers yota should not be. If no violations from the user will not be, then access to a network with a decent speed through standard 4G and seemingly unlimited.

Connection

How to connect the Yota mobile operator to services? There are two main ways. SIM card from this service provider can be ordered through the site of the company or use mobile application. An ordered SIM card will brought a courier. You can also pick it up in the issuance points whose address will be displayed in the appendix. If customers have difficulty using services, the Yota-mobile setup operator will send through its support service, they are necessary for the correct operation of SIM-cards. In this case, the emphasis is placed on the interaction of the relevant structure of the provider with customers through online channels, for example through chat.

Reviews

Yota-operator of mobile communications Experts and users have very different. They can be classified in three categories. The first characterize the quality of communication services. The second is the pricing policy of the company. Third - market prospects of the new operator. Regarding the reviews of the first type, we can say that in general they are positive. And this is not surprising, since Yota will largely use the MegaFon infrastructure, which is probably not inferior on the technologicality of the one that other operators apply. Regarding the views of users' opinions and experts are different.

Product class premium

Yota-mobile operator tariffs offers mainly for customers in a premium segment. Since when simple comparison They are even with those that there is a "megaphone", their benefit is not so obvious. Moreover, in the use of the Internet there are marked limitations. There is another point of view on which tariffs from Yota are quite fair. The fact is that it is truly unlimited internet at 300 rubles a month (if you do not violate its use rules, it has no restrictions on traffic, speed, etc.) can not be far from each operator.

Many users, by the way, impresses the sales channel, which organized the Yota mobile operator. Customer reviews say that courier delivery is convenient. You can order a SIM card anywhere in the city, home, to work.

Coating

How effective is the new operator ready to maintain subscribers in the aspect of the coverage zone? It all depends primarily from the applied communication technology. Of course, the Yota mobile operator coating according to 2G and 3G standards provides almost everywhere if we talk about the cities of the company's presence.

Another thing, if it comes to newest technologies Based on 4G. In this case, the one that guarantees the Yota mobile operator, the coverage area is distributed, even if we talk about Moscow, not always evenly. At the same time, to meet the basic needs of using the Internet, sufficient resources, which includes the 3G standard. Taking into account the fact that Yota customers undesirable to load large files, the practical need for speeds of more than 3-4 Mbps, which gives 3G, may be low.

Marketing

Actually, about responses that characterize the market prospects of the new provider of cellular service provider, one can talk separately. It is believed that Yota, in particular, is not fully effective in the aspect of the use of sales channels. As we have already said, the SIM-card distribution is carried out by ordering through the site and delivery by the courier or using items. This is not the most optimal path that the Yota-mobile operator elected, the reviews of the staff of some analytical agencies are withstanding in such a tone. The fact is that to conquer a significant share of the company's market, you need to conquer the target group of customers at 10 million people, for this we need larger distribution channels, such as, for example, retail brands.

Innovation in sales

There are also experts that believe that the selected Yota resources for the distribution of SIM cards are essentially revolutionary in its kind. The fact is that when involved standard Channels, in particular networks of retail brands, the cost of attracting the client is about 500-700 rubles, and this is usually minimum. If you use the courier services, the indicator is reduced by about twice. Another thing is that distribution dynamics in this case below. However, it is quite possible to assume that Yota will use innovative distribution methods only at the very beginning of the business, if necessary, cycling and standard, albeit more expensive channels.

Internet will be unlimited?

It is believed that over time Yota announced its willingness to provide Internet access services in a completely unlimited format, will switch to the model in which limitations may be provided. Now this cellular operator is enough small number Users (if compared with the number of subscribers of the same "MegaFon" and other "Big Troika" companies) can provide unlimited access to online without any nuances (except for restrictions on the "torrents"). There are experts who believe that there is no objective prerequisites. At least for the reason that the average Russian user of the mobile Internet loads files and data by about 3-5 gigabytes per month.

I don't need to the user

This volume is generally guaranteed in the "standard" tariff plans for other cellular operators, but within the framework of prepaid traffic and for the same 300 rubles per month. Experts are probably what, first, Yota has no special reason to expect that in the segment where the company will provide services, the average monthly traffic will significantly increase relative to 3-5 gigabytes (especially taking into account restrictions on "torrent" and files Large size), and secondly, technology is still developing. And therefore, the potential load on the server may not be so critical to move away from the policy of providing unlimited Internet access policies.

Market segments

Above we said that Yota is likely to concentrate on premium clients. That is, those who may be ready to overpay for additional services Connection subject to use unlimited Internet. At the same time, there is a version that the spectrum of customers of the new operator will also be replenished by those who are accustomed to the average at the cost of tariffs. This can be facilitated, for example, the profitable roaming policy of Yota.

All calls between subscribers of this operator are now free throughout Russia. In addition, according to some experts, unlimited SMS for 50 rubles - quite a competitive price, even on the background of "standard" tariffs from other operators. SMS has not yet come out of fashion, despite the fact that online messengers are becoming increasingly popular. True, experts make it difficult to say, analyzing the prospects for the business model, which the Yota-mobile operator offers, when the company will win new target groups of customers.

Yota - competitor "MegaFon"?

Is it possible to consider Yota by direct competitor "MegaFon", despite the fact that it is a subsidiary of one of the leading russian operators? Experts believe that it is not. There are completely radical versions on this. For one of them, MegaFon in principle is not interested in the success of the new business implemented by Yota. Mobile operator (Reviews of some analysts, at least contain such assumptions) appeared on the market not in order to select a part of the holding clients, the part of which is. Most likely, experts believe, this is due to the desire of the management of the innovation company to be mastered in fundamentally new niches for the Russian cellular market.

There is a version that Yota was forced to develop unusual SIM card distribution channels to a certain extent because MegaFon did not provide a resource in the form of his own dealer network.

Yota and trading networks

There is also the opinion that this feature mobile operator may use in perspective. But so far, as evidenced by experts regarding the activities that the Yota mobile operator, reviews and reviews on thematic portals are carried out, the company is trying to negotiate with the dealers of the Euroset level and "connected". Therefore, if even the holding and will not give good to engage in the dealer network, Yota will have a spare resource. Although the resource with which the Yota mobile operator has, connect sufficiently quickly, and the potential client is not at all necessary to look for other options, such as a trip to the retail brand office.

"Mobile slavery" canceled, let live freedom of choice! " - Approximately with such words tens of thousands of people ran into communication salons to go from one mobile operator to another. SIM cards shuffled between the "big triple" and everything remained in their places. The displeased megaphone went to MTS or Beeline, as was the discontented with the lanesses, they moved to the side of the megaphone. And everyone is happy. However, in this turmoil, many have not noticed the emergence of a new telecom operator - Yota, who began to distribute their "SIM cards" by everyone. One of them was me. As the transition process passed and what eventually came out, I'll tell you now.

Prehistory.

It started still a couple of years ago, when I decided to take myself a mobile router that used on trips. The device has repeatedly been keen in places where mobile operators could not provide high-quality communication. Now this router is at me in the country and running the clock, providing unlimited Internet All connected devices. Having learned at the beginning of the year that in Yota decided to enter the cellular market, I decided to learn more, which offers a new operator and what advantages I will receive if I decide to go to it.

It turned out that everything was very simple (which you can't tell about the main "players" of the market): You buy as many minutes as you need (from 100 per month) and additionally connect a package of unlimited SMS for symbolic 50 rubles. The Internet is already included in the price and also does not have any traffic restrictions. One fare Without a variety of options and incomprehensible write-offs - it was exactly what I need. "Jump" once a few months from the tariff on the tariff in search of more profitable and convenient offer, Yes, and connect some options, the description of which confuses even more than the name, simply tired. And how I infused the message of the view "You are approaching the threshold of shutdown, because They spent all traffic, now we are all shut off. Want to extend? Send SMS to the number, wait for confirmation, send a new ... ". Therefore, the two main factors "for" the transition was performed: a simple tariff, unlimited Internet.

Before connection

Naturally, since the laws are all accepted and leave their "precious" number I can myself, I began to find out what I need to go. I have already mentally presented that I am waiting for paper red tires, reconciliation of data and other service, so familiar to the Russian person. Our colleague, Sergey Soutagin, already wrote on the pages of Lifehaker about that, and his material was somewhat disturbed by me. Conduct conversations for 20 minutes at point of sales with consultants, often poorly understanding the subject of the conversation, I did not want any way. However, in fact, everything went much more easier.

To connect to Yota it was necessary to download special application For iOS, read about the benefits of connection and ... Wait for notifications about when you can pick up your new SIM card. And it was, perhaps, the most unpleasant moment in the entire history - "SIM card" had to wait about a month. Unfortunately, the exact date was not mentioned anywhere, so I had to be patient. Now, I think that the waiting time has declined, since I, apparently, was in the first wave on the distribution of cards.

And here, in the cherished day, a notification that I can pick up my SIM card was highlighted on my iPhone display. Open again the application has acquired new features, where I have been shown the points of issuing cards and it is even proposed to pave the route to the nearest, where I went.
It is worth saying that the SIM card could be ordered from courier delivery, but I decided to take neat and personally go, the benefits of issuing points were somewhat.

Connection / Transfer

Reaching the nearest point of issue and informing consultants about your choice, I was asked to call a certain confirmation code - a unique identifier that is displayed in the application after notification that the card can be taken. By calling it and giving a passport, I reported on the intention to leave my phone number. I was printing paper about the translation and gave packing with a SIM card, pre-warning that the transition takes 8 days and during this period the balance on the number should remain positive. By paying 500 rubles, which will go to the balance (no additional hundred rubles), I spread and drove home. The whole procedure took about five minutes.

Expectation

Throughout the period on my number, as described in the article Sergey, there were notifications about how I can start using a new SIM card (and on the same day my practically the former operator disabled me the Internet), but as long as she Lying on the table. And then you probably wondered: And what kind of format is the SIM card issued and will it be necessary to cut it? Nothing supernatural from you will not need. In the package there is one card, but depending on the phone model, you pull out the size you need - all parts are bonded between themselves, so if you need the usual nano-sim - pull out the smallest piece, if the micro is the middle and if the mini is the entire card Fully. The photo below shows that all three pieces are bonded between themselves, and you just need to "squeeze" a piece of the desired size.

Using

Eight days passed. Exactly at midnight of the ninth day, the old SIM card notified me that there was no network. It's time to insert a new "SIM" that I immediately did. Initially, even the only tariff that exists in Yota is not connected on the map, all the options you need control themselves (except for the Internet, it is immediately complete and you pay a fixed amount for it). In order to start using "SIM cards", you need to start the application and select the minute and SMS for you, if necessary. As soon as it is done - you can start using.

I really like this approach. Everyone you can manage to manage yourself, and for this you do not need to send various SMS to any number for connecting services, everything is done through the application. Routers from Yota are similar: you put some amount on the balance and connect the required speed, which can be changed during the period. That is, you pay not for traffic, namely for the speed of connection.

application

Now about one of the most important things about the application. There is nothing complicated in it, just necessary: startout screen Meets us with information about the remaining minutes and connected SMS, balance information and the connection conditions menu. At any time you can open it and learn about your expenses, and for this, again, you do not need to send anywhere anywhere or call - all information before your eyes. If you suddenly understand that you do not fit into the limit of minutes, they can be purchased directly in the application, as well as the balance - for these operations it is not necessary to look for the terminal or use the uncomfortable web versions of the personal accounts of the operators, everything is done in a pair of taps on the smartphone display. And since the Internet is unlimited, then it is quite difficult to stay without connection. Unfortunately, the application has not yet been optimized under iOS 8 - from here, apparently, the braking interface and departures when trying to specify a package of minutes. But, I think, to the official release operating system From Apple this question will be resolved.

In the same application, you can contact support by chat service, which is also convenient. One click on the button and you will be connected to a specialist who will help your question.

Sapport

And in this paragraph, they usually write about what a bad support service. Yes, I myself have repeatedly spoke and wrote about the like, without even taking into account the telecom operators. As a rule, customers are unhappy with the level of services provided, as well as the fact that according to their own inattention or misunderstanding of the subject, the problem is accused of all consultants and other service sector. To some extent right and those and others, on both sides there are incompetent or not wanting to help / explain people. And one of the most important problems is insufficient attention to the client and waiting time in solving his question / problems.

In the Support Yota, I addressed many times in different reasons, not only when changing the SIM card and operator. A couple of months ago I started constant problems with connecting the router to the LTE network, which I told the support service. My application was taken into processing, reported that the base station was overloaded, and promised not only to unload it, but also to deal with the "hardware" (perhaps it was a replacement of equipment or modernization of the existing one). Naturally, it was immediately clear that it would take a lot of time. However, after about four weeks, a letter came to the mail with the notification that problems were eliminated, along with the proposal to evaluate the quality of communication: "Everything became good" and "no, still works bad." It is clear that the phrase "Your opinion is very important for us" - for the most part, the standard excuse, but in this case I chose the first option, since the connection was stable another week before notification.

With the receipt of a new SIM card, I also encountered problems that mentioned just above: the application crashed every time I tried to choose suitable packages for myself minutes and SMS. When describing the problem in the chat, which is also available on the company's website, I was helped for 10 minutes, connecting those packages that interest me. I did not particularly count on this approach, but I expected to read something like "This OS is not yet supported by the application, so use actual version Or wait for the optimization under a new one. " Agree, not every first puts a beta version of the mobile operating system, so this answer I would perceive quite adequately. But, to my happiness, the problem was decided without a rollback to stable iOS 7. It should be noted that the operator's waiting time does not exceed the norm - from all my appeals to wait for a response for more than five minutes.

Connection quality

While I passed with a new SIM card only a week, so it's difficult to objectively assess the quality fully, but I constantly do measurements of speed and their indicators please me: the download speed several times was about 8 Mbps (of course it depends on your Locations), but below 3 Mbps has not yet descended. The indicator of 3 Mbps was maximum for my previous operator, so high-quality improvements are visible immediately. As you understand, we are talking of course about 3G networks, since at your disposal I have iPhone 5, which in our LTE frequencies does not work. But with LTE, I think there will be no problems, however, we will check only after entering the iPhone 6.
What about voice calls - then everything is quite understandable: Yota uses its tower to provide the Internet, and MegaFon Stations are for voice calls. Nevertheless, all three main operators are more or less than the same, so in this paragraph without revelations. In places where the megaphone does not catch, it will not work Yota.

Minuses

Of course, there are everywhere, even yota. There are two of them: when using a smartphone in modem mode, the speed is limited to 64 kbps, and when loading torrents - 32. And if the second restriction is quite reasonably, I don't really like the first. In those moments when missing Wi-Fi ConnectionThe iPhone always came to the rescue, with which you could access the network without any problems. Now it is very uncomfortable due to low speed. I understand perfectly well why it is done, but I hope that the company will still revise their limitations and raise the speed at least twice.

What is the result?

And in the end, I got what I wanted: the lack of wisdom tariff plans, hundreds of options and permanent traffic restrictions. I don't lead a lot about the phone, so 100 minutes a month should be enough, and if the speed of the Internet does not continue to fall below 3 Mbps - it will be possible to finally use FaceTime for conversations. As - in no way, and the sound quality is much better than by cellular network. Yes, and on long journeys in Russia - it will very help the lack of roaming within the country. In any case, Yota for me is first of all the Internet, moreover, unlimited, and that, while no one can offer any of the operators.

This review is prepared based on the use of a SIM card in St. Petersburg. Prices and communication quality may differ depending on the region.
