The
telephone call costing engine, currently used in InfoDEN’s PABX Call
Logger , is fast, compact, configurable and is capable of being
integrated into third party applications across multiple platforms.
The call costing engine’s potential uses include:
Internet based call costing -
the call costing engine can be licenced for use by any web site
requiring an accurate telephone call costing function. The costing
engine creates its charging tables dynamically based on the “calling
from” phone number and is therefore capable of accurately processing
costing requests and returning the processed calls in the required
format. The costing engine can also process each call costing request
using up to 256 user defined and configurable carrier costing tables.
This is ideal for sites wanting to provide carrier comparison reports
or individual telecommunications carriers/resellers wanting to provide a
call calculator service for their customers.
Call Accounting Applications
– the costing engine can be licenced for use by third party software
developers wanting to rapidly enter the call accounting market. These
developers can then focus their efforts on the userability, reporting
and networking funtions of their programs. This option is also
available to existing call accounting developers who are unable to keep
up with the ever changing manner of the telecommunications industry.
International developers will also find this an attractive option when
analysing the feasibilty of entering the Australian market.
Other Software Applications -
the costing engine can be licenced for use by third party software
developers wanting call costing functionality in their software
applications. This may include developers of CRM, accounting or phone
dialler applications where call accounting is not the core use of the
software, however its inclusion will provide benefit to users and a
competitive edge.
PDA Applications
– a great opportunity awaits any developer wanting to exploit the
costing engine’s power on Windows CE devices. Currently we are not
aware of any call costing based applications available for Windows CE.
Apple OSX
– as with Windows CE, an opportunity also awaits any developer wanting
to use the costing engine on the Apple OSX platform. Currently we are
not aware of any call costing based applications available for Apple
OSX.
