Web Based Call Accounting Tools

Web based call accounting dramatically improves the effectiveness of what was an under utilized business tool. Let's review the reasons why web enabled call accounting is such a good thing.

1. Web call accounting systems can be accessed from nearly anywhere, or at least from where ever there is an Internet or Intranet connection. In the past call software could only be accessed through PC's that had client software installed or via printed reports.

The result is that we can now access web enabled call accounting systems whenever and where ever we are. It's one less cause of frustration when traveling, working from home or just moving around the office.

2. Everyone in an organization with the required security can access metrics relating to their personal responsibilities at an enterprise, departmental or individual level. Via a browser they can monitor metrics associated with every aspect of inbound and outbound call traffic under their direct control.

3. Web based call software increases the level of personal accountability for using business assets and incurring expenses. Furthermore it's an outcome that is achieved with complete transparency, which makes it more effective as a self managing business tool.

4. Web based call accounting tools are a means of delivering management information in real time when it is most useful and valuable. Problems and trends can be identified at an early stage and corrective action taken. Telephone fraud is an example of where real time detection is far more effective than a post mortem analysis.

5. As there is no requirement to install anything other than an Internet browser on a PC to access web based call accounting systems, they are easy and inexpensive to administer. Call accounting software can be accessed by users anywhere in the world within minutes of deployment. As there is no client software to install, users always see the latest version of software whenever they log on.

6. Web interfaces are now the de facto standard for all computer applications, which means that software is easier to learn and use. Everyone from school children to chief executives are now familiar with some form of web based reporting.

7. Web based call accounting systems are easily integrated with other business applications including financial and customer information systems. Ease of integration typically results in more accurate and timely management information.

8. Trends in call management software: computer and telephone technologies have converged. Our daily business communication is carried on over multiple forms of IP technology. Why would we use anything other than web based call accounting systems to manage their use?

9. Hosted VoIP PBX service providers recognize the effectiveness of providing web enabled call accounting solutions as a means of enhancing their value proposition and increasing customer loyalty.

10. A VoIP call accounting solution without a web interface is an unlikely combination.
