Key benefits of Call Events for your business

Visibility and control

Administrators benefit from extensive call visibility, allowing them to effectively control and manage communication settings and preferences such as call forwarding, call waiting, call blocking, and recording.

Insights and analytics

Integration and automation

Use cases of Call Events

Efficient billing

The Call Events feature helps to significantly refine the billing process, ensuring accuracy and fairness. Operators are able to track and record the precise amount of time, data and features utilized during a call, with the result that customers are billed based on their actual service usage. This approach allows customers to be charged only for the services they actually use, as opposed to the limitations of fixed or flat rate billing strategies. The result is greater cost transparency and flexibility, as well as increased customer loyalty.

Furthermore, the accuracy and efficiency of the billing process can be increased by automating the collection of call event data, from network elements to billing systems. This automation minimizes errors, delays and disputes that may arise during billing, thereby strengthening customer trust and satisfaction.

Insightful statistics

The Call Events functionality extends beyond billing, playing an important role in improving customer service through the delivery of timely and accurate information. For example, call center performance and efficiency can be fine-tuned by analyzing key metrics and trends in calls.

Call events data provides real-time insights into call characteristics, such as caller ID, IP address, device type, and network type. This real-time tracking allows for immediate advisories, and businesses can set up alerts and notifications for any issues or anomalies that might impact call service or quality. This practice ensures a proactive approach to maintaining an optimal customer experience.

Robust security measures

To enhance security, businesses can use call event data to detect and prevent fraudulent or malicious calls, thereby protecting against threats like spam, phishing, spoofing and denial-of-service attacks. By applying rules and algorithms such as anomaly detection and behavior analysis, businesses can actively identify suspicious call events and take swift corrective action such as call blocking or alerting, to mitigate the impact of fraudulent calls.

By leveraging Call Events for security purposes, businesses strengthen their defenses against potential threats, promoting a secure and trustworthy communication environment for their customers.
