Managing your international telecom infrastructure is tricky business. Currencies, languages, regulations, and processes vary from country to country, yet the C-level requires a centralized view of the global landscape in order to drive efficiencies.
The FCC estimates that 1 in 6 Americans has experienced some form of bill shock, that OMG reaction to a surprisingly high phone bill. Translate that to your business and it could mean that up to 1/6th of your workforce may incur excessive roaming costs - costs that can be avoided!
With more and more employees insisting on using their own mobile devices within corporate walls, enterprises are scrambling to develop and enforce sound security policies and provide technical support to users with a wide array of devices and operating systems.
Roaming costs are the single biggest cause of the global phenomenon known as bill shock—that jaw dropping, “you’ve got to be kidding!” moment that’s the same in any language.
The battle over BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) has everyone arguing over two factors: cost and ownership—who should bear the cost and “own” the data stored on a mobile device used for work.
In the name of corporate agility, businesses are willing to risk a certain amount of security in the name of huge productivity benefits. But when do the risks outweigh the benefits?
No two Communication Lifecycle Management (CLM) projects are alike. Each has different requirements and resources, and each organization has different data, policies, and processes that govern the way they must approach the selection and implementation of a Telecom Expense Management (TEM) or a Mobile Device Management (MDM) solution. For all the differences, however, there are certain areas that every enterprise must consider prior to selecting a CLM solution.
The last few years have been tough for businesses of every size. The good news is that the drastic measures rushed into place to stop cost hemorrhaging a few years ago have given way to less-reactionary strategies in regards to cost management.

Change comes fast. Who would have predicted the need for organizations to find new ways to manage MULTIPLE mobile platforms? With so many new devices on disparate platforms entering the marketplace (not to mention employees demanding corporate access on their device of choice), organizations are being challenged to balance productivity against risk. The key is adopting a mobility management strategy that allows different types of devices to enter the network while enforcing policies that provide the control and security needed to meet standard requirements.
Did you know that in some parts of the world, business phone service can be deactivated if an invoice payment isn’t received within 15 day of the due date? Think making that payment is as easy as cutting a check? Think again. Some countries insist the payment be made from within the country itself.
It’s a chaotic world out there, especially if you’re in the business of managing enterprise mobility. It’s becoming more and more obvious that the challenge is NOT in deciding which device to allow into your enterprise, but in how to simultaneously managing disparate devices, rate plans, security, applications, and end-user support in an efficient and effective way.

There is no longer a question as to how mobility will change the enterprise. The issue at hand is how fast your organization needs to move in order to keep up with the changes!
The recent economy has not been kind to small and mid-sized businesses. Too many SMBs have been forced to squeeze every dime out of their revenue stream, decrease organizational expenses (often via layoffs), and increase the workload and responsibilities of existing employees. 
Multi-national corporations are increasingly recognizing the benefits of deploying telecom expense management (TEM) capabilities on a global basis. Going global with TEM enables organizations to:
The cost of keeping a global workforce mobile—connected via mobile communication—is a hot topic among IT and telecom professionals. Up until recently, one carrier contract per country was the norm.

The process of negotiating telecom carrier contracts is complex and leaves little room for error even for the most experienced negotiator.
