MobiSDP Recognized, Again
Good news! Again! Our mobile development platform MobiSDP has been recently recognized again – this time with LISA Award. In fact two of Bianor solutions were nominated and awarded as top products – MobiSDP and MobiECO Sales Force but since latter is sitting on top of MobiSDP I can say that our mobile platform is the real winner.
LISA Award seeks to stimulate creative interaction among those engaged in software development and application on Long Island, and to give these activities a higher recognition. We are proud that Bianor’s solutions were honored together with solutions from other market leaders as CA, Northrop Grumman, etc. All the winners and more information about LISA can be found here.
Nokia Developer Summit 2009
On April 28th and 29th we visited Nokia Developer Summit 2009. I must confess it was a really nice event and very useful for everyone who is a player in the mobile world. It was interesting for me to hear what is Nokia’s strategy and what I’ve got is quite a simple but straightforward thing – to establish Ovi as a platform for applications, content and services BUT all targeting the end user and … almost nothing about the business users. Well, that message confirmed my expectations that Nokia is quite focused nowadays to the consumer market and all they do is just about that. All that empowers even more our mobile platform MobiSDP to fill the gap for the enterprises whose employees choose Nokia handsets and their fancy features and at the same time they need to access business related information securely and reliably while they are on the move.
Best Roaming Fares
Do you travel a lot?
Yes!?
And you probably talk on your cell phone frequently while abroad?
Then I’m sure you are always wondering how much you would pay for a minute in roaming or which is the best carrier for a call. And may be your Financial Director is always worried about the cost optimization.
Well, it is always a headache for me to understand how much my roaming would cost me. I usually either don’t have the time to check the rates before leaving or the corporate offer is so complicated that really frustrates me.
The GSM Association, the world association of all 3G/GSM mobile carriers has published a web site with the best roaming fare around Europe. Why? Because there is a huge consumer demand for great transparency among international roaming prices across the European mobile operators. It is a very user-friendly comparison tool where everyone can check how much it would cost a two-minute call when one is in Germany or UK and is Orange France subscriber for example. Cool and really easy to use!
The general roaming rule says that it is always twice cheaper to receive a call than to initiate one. Of course, there are exceptions of the rule but they are not many in Europe and even around the world. That’s is why we prefer incoming than outgoing calls. Why should we limit ourselves? Is it possible to pay the same fee for outgoing call as we pay for the incoming?
The short answer is “Yes”!
A cool new solution called MobiECO Optima helps us to decrease our roaming costs. It makes all our outgoing calls cost as much as incoming ones thus saving up to 50% .
It seems now that you and your Financial Director will not be so worried about the roaming costs.
Paying a Fortune for Corporate Mobile Calls? Not Any More…
In the beginning of 2009 we did the first release of the innovative MobiECO Business Solutions. The MobiECO family consists of two cool solutions for mobile communication.
MobiECO Optima is a great mobile cost optimizer. For example it brings us up to 90% reduction of all international mobile calls expenses. Instead of paying Euro 60 cents/minute when we use our cell phones to communicate with US, we pay just Euro 6 cents/minute. Isn’t it a cheap international mobile call?
And further more… We get a significant saving /up to 50%/ for all outgoing calls in roaming as well. The solution is so smart that it simply reverses the direction of the call and converts all the outgoing roaming calls into incoming. A smart way to lower the roaming bills =)
Cool? And simple too…
It consists just of a smart server and mobile application. Both work seamlessly with the corporate PBX and place all the outgoing calls through the PBX.
The other MobiECO solution is MobiECO Sales Force. This one is based on the same technology, but aims at optimizing sales processes and especially the customer communication. The solution automatically records sales call parameters into the CRM system thus keeping complete track of the customer interaction and enabling the company to enforce better coordination rules.
Both solutions are developed on proprietary mobile service delivery platform – MobiSDP. It enables us to rapidly develop and deploy high-performance mobile multimedia and communication applications and services. The platform adds extra value in development of complete business solutions for content providers and for those who need to export their existing services to the mobile world.
