Avotus Announces Launch of Telicost Solution in Partnership with Anomalous Networks

MISSISSAUGA, Ontario--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Avotus Corporation, a leading provider of telecom expense management (TEM) services, eProcurement, and Call Accounting (Usage Management) solutions, announced today a partnership with Anomalous Networks to launch a new Real-Time Telecom Expense Management (R-TEM) solution called Avotus Telicost.

The new Telicost solution combines the Real-Time Telecom Expense Management (R-TEM) technology of Anomalous Networks with the expertise of Avotus to achieve a significant reduction in enterprise telecom expenses. It is specifically designed to monitor, inform, and analyze data, voice and roaming costs. The solution provides visibility into an enterprise’ telecom expenses through the use of customizable real-time alerts, and allows for increased security and productivity through the use of flexible mobile device policies.

“In the past, enterprise companies relied on TEM firms to analyze their mobile bills after-the-fact in order to ensure carriers were not overcharging. Businesses need to accurately estimate and plan their mobile expenses,” said Anomalous Networks CEO Dan Rudich. “Our technology actually gives TEMs like Avotus the ability to provide real-time tracking and alerting for voice, data, SMS and roaming events helping to eliminate “Bill Shock” for their customers through a centralized dashboard of a company’s mobile fleet. So, instead of looking at the end-users’ roaming charges after they hit the bill, companies will be instantly alerted and instructed to adjust user behavior or telecom plans in real-time. With Telicost, companies can save anywhere between 20-60% on their overall mobile expenses every month.”

According to Gartner’s Monica Basso, Research VP, “Real-Time Telecom Expense Management is an emerging trend within the TEM landscape. These real-time solutions are proactive and they target management issues within a single environment. In addition, these solutions allow businesses to make informed decisions regarding their telecom budget.”

“Avotus has constantly been in the spotlight for delivering sizable savings and high ROIs to its client companies. The launch of Avotus Telicost is the result of dedicated efforts to extend the Avotus Mobile Lifecycle Management suite to include a solution that provides real-time visibility into enterprise mobility,” says Sumer Shankardass, CEO of Avotus. “With this new offering, Avotus is now fully equipped to empower enterprises to keep tabs on the pulse of their communication spend arising from roaming, estimated plan overages, and other anomalous usage events. Avotus Telicost has capabilities to evaluate your carrier network usage in real-time and predict expenses, and prevent astronomical and unprecedented overages.”

The Avotus Telicost solution empowers enterprises to configure real-time alerts pop-alerts for employees when a pre-determined rate plan limit is approached or exceeded, set a cut-off level to prevent a particular feature—like data, voice or SMS—from working once a predefined threshold is reached, track devices and setup Geo-Fence or virtual perimeter for real-world geographic location tracking, and monitor data, voice, and SMS usage on devices in a quick and easy manner.
