Explore Concept-Tel

Since the revolutionary Telecommunications Act of 1996, Concept-Tel has been providing turnkey and custom software solutions for the carrier industry. The latest release of Concept-Tel 8.0 ranks among the most comprehensive and powerful telecommunications management and analysis platforms available at any price. We offer a carrier grade, Oracle-based environment capable of processing millions of calls per hour that can be implemented very quickly with minimal investment of time and effort and an extremely low cost of acquisition and ownership.

With deregulation occurring across the globe and finacial instability contributing to downsizing and vastly increased exposure, today´s carriers need to create and maintain a competitive edge with minimal effort and rock-solid stability. Sales agents need correct, to-the-minute information to make instant decisions. Network engineers need powerful analysis and fault-checking capabilities to keep their networks operating efficiently and profitably. Information technologists need to know their information is in one, secure, accessible source, not lost in a quilt of homegrown, extinct, or erroneous software. Rate administrators and accounting personnel need intuitive, efficient data management and communications tools to improve their productivity, not bog them down. Executives need to see accurate, realtime margins. They need to trend forwards, backwards, and sideways. They need to know how much they owe, how much they make, how many calls go through, where their strengths lie and where they need work. And they need it now.

Whether you are an individual entrepreneur or an established carrier with a seasoned staff, Concept-Tel 8.0 will provide the most streamlined, powerful and accessible traffic management platform available at any price.
