QoSMOS, a French manufacturer of auditing and optimisation tools for IP networks, raised €3.2M from Sofinnova Partners in an internal second round. Founded in 2000, it raised €2M in its first round.

The startup's software, targeted at Telcos, can answer questions like

What is the quality experienced by users of your 3G services?
What is the impact of Peer to Peer on your network?
What is the Skype share of VoIP minutes on your network?
What range of applications is used by your corporate customers ?


QoSMOS is going to use the capital for European market development and product development, namely its flagship product QoSMOS ForMyNet, designed for broadband solutions. It's also doing R&D in advanced protocol recognition.

There is at least one other company that has a similar ability to answer such questions, Sandvine, but the technology is inside a much larger system, we believe. The fact that Qosmos has several OEMs incorporating its software suggests that it has found market demand.
