iC360 for PBX Call Management

Access a single consolidated view of office resources to control and manage usage, behaviour and expenses.  Assign direct and indirect costs to any resource that has a cost or value to highlight exceptional costs and misuse.

  • Office phone systems; fixed telephony usage, performance and expenses 
  • Apportion telecoms expenses and cross charge; inbound and outbound call logging 
  • Record calls to evaluate performance and deliver effective training 
  • Understand and control Fixed Mobile Convergence (FCM) resources 
  • Network access

Improve customer service AND the efficiency of internal operations.

Measuring resources yields a wealth of meaningful business insight and raises important questions that affect both customer service levels and the overall cost of business operations.

Monitoring operations will influence behaviour & drive company policy: 

  • Why are mobile calls being made when someone is in reach of a desk phone? 
  • Why are mobiles used for inter-office calls when desk phones are free? 
  • Why is a company key fob being used at one of your offices when the user is logged in remotely via VPN? 
  • How much time is spent leaving and entering the building during the day? 
  • Why are customer meetings postponed because meeting rooms are booked out for internal meetings? 

Call Logging is proven to improve customer service: 

  • How many missed calls remain unresolved at the end of each day? 
  • How much revenue are you losing because people aren’t answering calls? 

National business statistics show that 56.7% of all missed calls never leave a message and never call back.

iC360 for Mobile Expense Management

Analyse multiple mobile telecoms contracts, tariffs, bills, devices, usage and performance in a single portal. Maintain data in-house and identify ongoing savings.

Managing multiple bills for multiple devices in multiple formats is a common and growing challenge. Most companies would choose to consolidate telecoms vendors, but this is not always possible.

An average UK company has in excess of 4 or 5 mobile telecoms-related suppliers, which may include:  

  • Multiple mobile carriers 
  • GSM gateway providers for outbound calls 
  • Device management applications 
  • Remote access providers 
  • Secure authentication 
  • Lone worker protection 
  • Vehicle tracking 
  • Mobile call recording software 
  • Mobile conferencing software

An individual mobile worker might carry a number of devices (company mobile, personal mobile, tablet, laptop, data connectivity or security device, projector, pager, radio…), each with its own vendor, bill, contract, warranty, license, SIM and accessories.

Individual contract terms, tariffs, termination dates, invoices, bill runs, billing portals, data formats and devices/assets as well as processes and back end systems need populating for each provider.  Customer support, inventories and cost centre structures must also be taken into consideration.

The right mobile data tariff for the device being used, correctly tuned to the usage profile is now more critical than ever, to avoid spiralling telecoms bills and repeating bill shock. Unlike desktop computers connected to fixed cost broadband connections, unaware mobile users browsing social media, streaming videos, downloading music and sending/receiving large documents without thinking, can quickly rack up huge mobile expenses for businesses. 

Gain in-depth analytics at the click of a button to manage mobile expenses, tackle rising costs and avoid ‘bill shock’.

iC360 from Tollring is a revolutionary telecoms analytics platform that integrates with your business communications systems to deliver business intelligence based on granular, enterprise-wide telecoms usage and expenses. By leveraging a consolidated, centralised repository, critical business insights enable you to manage mobile expenses, lower costs, achieve greater profitability and gain predictability.
