WMS

What WMS does

WMS is a regional Czech telecommunications brand operated by ČEZNET s.r.o. (IČO 26378191), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the ČEZ Group (Skupina ČEZ) headquartered at Duhová 1531/3, Prague 4. The company provides internet access, digital television, and fixed-line voice services to residential households and small/medium businesses primarily in the Ústí nad Labem Region of North Bohemia, including Most, Litvínov, Louny, Žatec and surrounding municipalities. Customer acquisition runs through direct-to-consumer channels: a toll-free phone line (+420 800 707 077), a website-based service request form, and on-site technician installation, supported by campaign micro-sites and a Facebook presence.

The underlying network is built on two access technologies. In covered areas, WMS deploys GPON (Gigabit Passive Optical Network) as FTTH (fiber-to-the-home) or FTTB (fiber-to-the-building), with ONT modems provided free of charge on 24-month contracts and symmetric speeds up to 2 Gbps (FIBER Mini+/Klasik+/Profi+, launched 2023). Where fiber is not yet available, the company operates a proprietary 60 GHz fixed wireless network covering 183 localities with speeds up to 1 Gbps. Digital television is delivered as IPTV under the ČEZNET TV and WMS TV brands, offering up to 190 channels with 7-day catch-up, cloud recording, multi-screen viewing (Android TV, Google TV, Apple TV, LG webOS, Samsung Tizen, iOS, Android, web), and a dedicated WMS TV Android TV application with multi-profile and parental controls. Voice service is fixed-line telephony with rates from 0.48 Kč/minute.

Revenue is generated through monthly recurring subscription fees across tiered tariffs: residential internet from 150 Kč/month (FIBER Senior, 30 Mbps, pensioner tariff) to 999 Kč/month (WIFI Profi, up to 1 Gbps); television bundles at 199–629 Kč/month across Malá, Střední and Velká TV packages with optional sport, film and adult add-ons; and per-minute voice charges. Pricing is publicly disclosed in CZK, includes VAT, and bundles (e.g., WIFI Mini + TV Malá at 563 Kč/month) drive ARPU. The business serves an 11–50 employee operation with a granular subscriber base, no disclosed revenue, no public funding or M&A history, and EU co-financing supporting infrastructure investment.

Broad incumbents

• O2 Czech Republic: Largest Czech telecom incumbent offering fiber, xDSL, mobile, IPTV, and voice nationwide. Competes directly with WMS in its North Bohemia footprint but with vastly greater scale, content rights, and mobile cross-sell capability.
• T-Mobile Czech Republic: Major national carrier offering fixed broadband, mobile, and TV services across the Czech Republic, including WMS's operating area. Competes with WMS as a national alternative with bundled mobile offerings.
• Vodafone Czech Republic (fixed): National broadband and mobile provider offering fiber and TV bundles in many Czech localities, including regions where WMS operates. Provides significant competitive pressure on pricing and bundle composition.

Direct peers

• Starnet: Czech regional fiber and wireless ISP operating its own GPON and fixed-wireless networks, with a comparable triple-play (internet + IPTV + voice) bundle and similar SMB/government customer focus. Direct competitor for residential and business broadband in overlapping Czech regions.
• PODA: Regional Czech fiber and cable ISP offering internet, IPTV, and voice across multiple regions with its own HFC/FTTx infrastructure. Closely comparable on business model, technology stack, and target customer segments to WMS.
• Netbox: Czech regional fiber ISP providing gigabit internet, IPTV, and voice over its own FTTH network with bundled triple-play offerings. Highly comparable operating model, geographic focus, and product portfolio to WMS.
• Nordic Telecom: Czech regional operator combining fixed wireless (originally 5G-focused) with fiber and TV offerings for residential and SMB customers. Comparable regional-scale ISP model with alternative access technology emphasis.
• Tlapnet: Czech regional broadband operator offering fiber and wireless internet plus IPTV to households and SMBs in selected regions. Comparable scale, infrastructure ownership model, and product mix to WMS.
• Faster CZ: Czech regional ISP providing fiber and fixed-wireless broadband, IPTV, and voice services to residential and SMB customers with its own network infrastructure. Operates in a similar niche as WMS.

Regional players

• AVK (Česká síť): Smaller Czech regional operator active in selected districts with fiber and wireless broadband plus IPTV. Comparable regional-scale ISP model though typically serving different Czech localities than WMS.
