Proximiti Communications Announces Immediate Availability of CellTRAKR
Addresses Security and Mobile Device Management for Any Firm
May 12, 2010, Tampa, FL: Proximiti Communications announced today the immediate availability of its new CellTRAKR series of products designed to improve the security and management of mobile devices for any corporate user.
CellTRAKR provides a set of useful features that permits companies to better manage users and security of corporate and personally owned smart phones and works with Android, Blackberry, Windows Mobile, and soon iPhones.
CellTRAKR works with every major carrier and can be provisioned remotely and in minutes per user.
The user receives a text messages, clicks on the link, and reboots the phone and CellTRAKR is fully operational.
Mobile phones have the power and memory capacity of 2005 era laptops yet security and management tools are often lacking.
Lost and stolen phones can be huge problems with most users not utilizing password protection and most phones containing confidential data including contacts and e-mail.
Over 400 phones are lost at one major airport alone each month and the penalties for misappropriated data includes client confidence, government actions, and other legal implications.
One of CellTRAKR’s key features is the ability to immediately "wipe" a phone remotely with a simple command function for administrators.
Another major issue cited by IT observers is the ability to manage data from phones used by departing employees to insure corporate security.
CellTRAKR includes other features including detailed logging of all calls, e-mails, and text messages available both in real time via the web and with daily and other scheduled e-mail reports.
Users often find the logging beneficial for other needs of the business including time tracking and project management.
Usage reports are also often used to verify carrier billing and to identify heavy users of various services.
Text messaging is a growing issue for many companies with most reporting substantial increases in the past year.
Depending upon the corporate plan, text messaging can quickly become very expensive with 10 cents to 20 cents often being the per message cost.
Directory assistance calls and roaming issues can also be managed using CellTRAKR.
Most companies find that CellTRAKR can pay for itself with reductions in abuse and redirecting functions to lower cost alternatives automatically.
For users needing to make international calls from mobile phones, the savings are even more substantial using Proximiti’s IP international calling platform to complete calls compared to standard wireless international calling rates and there is no longer the need to utilize calling cards for these calls.
Many companies today have begun to establish a set of mobile usage policies for cell phone users.
These can include policies such as no texting while driving.
CellTRAKR can be configured to include location based tracking and also detect the use of the phone for texting, calling, or e-mailing while in motion above a threshold speed limit for suitably equipped phones.
Companies today understand that a substantial part of their business activities are now conducted via cell phone and that linking internal management systems to mobile phones can reduce user needs to input data manually and improve data management and business results.
CellTRAKR includes single click automatic updating of Microsoft CRM, Salesforce, and many popular legal management and billing systems.
CellTRAKR pricing starts at $29 per user year with plans including management system integration and location based services at higher rates.
Companies can match specific users to the appropriate plans best suited for your needs.
