Case Studies Newly established VoIP carrier The Problem This carrier entering the market for the first time needed a system capable of handling CDRs taken from a broadsoft switch along with added support from Symbiant. They also needed to be able to distribute accurate CDRs to resellers within a limited time span of switch collection, without relying on the presence of an operator. The Solution The client received a billing and CDR production system with differential charging ability for on and off net calls, codec type, bandwidth utilisation and breakout. CDRs were scheduled for collection, automatically rated and output with no need for manual intervention. The client was able to manage their customers expectations with CDRs ready for early collection. Their newly established business was able to develop in its chosen direction with prompt turnaround on all development and has established itself among the elite VOIP carriers. Small UK based Reseller The Problem This new reseller required a system that was cost effective and would consequently allow them to be competitive within a challenging market. They needed to be able to run accurate commission payment and clawback reports. Flexible tariff management and easy navigation featured high on the priority list. The Solution The client opted for our Out of Box system. This low cost startup option contains all the necessary components to get resellers off the ground without compromising functionality or competitiveness. Commission payment, DD, AUDDIS and Sage reports are integrated eliminating the need to operate multiple datasets and allowing prompt payment to their channel. The tariff management menu enables rapid deployment of your chosen tariffs, as well as rate manipulation without the need for 3rd party involvement. This gives our clients the freedom to respond to the market as promptly as they like and puts them in control of their business. 5
