ECT (European Computer Telecoms AG) provides the technology at the heart of the OnePhone® Virtual PBX solution, a commercially successful service already well established on the German market. Building upon this success, OnePhone plans to expand the service to other regions.

The OnePhone® service replaces traditional business telephone systems by equipping corporate customers with their own dedicated mobile network on their premises. This cloud-based PBX combines the intelligent features of both fixed-line telephone systems and mobile technology in one solution and allows for unlimited access, independent of the user’s location.

Nomen est omen with the OnePhone® service. In contrast to many other solutions, it uses just one mobile phone with one bill from one service provider. Similar offerings on the market don’t give you all these benefits. OnePhone provides true fixed-mobile convergence out of the cloud.

Businesses can substantially reduce their telephone costs by using optimized plans tailored to suit any size of enterprise and which include advantages such as free internal calls even when users are not in the office. The service helps to reduce capital expenditures (CAPEX) by removing the need for costly telecom equipment and multiple handsets in the workplace in favor of an end-to-end one phone system.

The reductions in operating expenditures (OPEX) are another significant benefit. Customers using the OnePhone system have only one contract when they purchase this “Communication as a Service (CaaS)”. When compared with the multiple contracts needed for other services, each with recurring monthly fees unrelated to the actual use, this represents a major cost saving. Additionally, the costly maintenance and administration required for a traditional PBX system are no longer necessary, freeing up support and administrative staff for their core tasks in the company IT.

Administration is done via an intuitive web-based portal. New users and even additional sites can easily be added. Users can also log-in to change their own settings such as presence status, group or routing settings and blacklists.

Numerous customers already profit from the tangible benefits the service can provide and OnePhone now plans to duplicate this success by introducing the service in further European markets. Their aim is to provide a solution which offers the scalability to grow as customers do themselves and which also significantly improves telecommunications processes as a whole. This in turn helps to refine operations and greatly enhance productivity.

With the INtellECT® platform, this and other services can be provided in both legacy and next-generation networks. ECT has supplied multiple services in Ericsson and Alcatel-Lucent IMS core networks including virtual PBX. The next-generation solution offers efficient call routing making it a service which not only cost effective but also an improvement to business communication as a whole.
