Why Opt for No Contract Cell Phones?

October 19th, 2011

By: Jharedd Mzcinkgh

When a person is deciding to purchase a new mobile phone or has a contract that is going to end real soon, he is faced with a dilemma. There are lots of great mobile phone deals out there so it is indeed a tough decision. Will he renew his contract? Will he purchase a mobile phone with contract? Or is opting for No Contract Cell Phones more advisable? Let this article enlighten you with all the benefits opting for No contract Cell phones can bring then decide for yourself if it is what you want.

First of all, opting for a no contract cell phone provides you flexibility which you cannot get from long contracts. This means that you can let go of your mobile phone anytime you want—one thing which you cannot do when you are tied down into a contract. This is more advisable these days since our economy is really unstable. You will never know what will happen for the next few months. Another great thing about no contract cell phones is that you can get to limit the use of mobile phones. This benefits parents the best as they can watch over the phone usage of their children. With prepaid mobile plans, once your balance becomes zero, you cannot send any more texts or make calls until you buy a new card. As a result, you will not be able to incur any more charges and your bill will not pile up at the end of the month. This helps you to conserve money as you can put limitations to your usage.

The only negative thing about no contract cell phones is that you cannot get big discounts, which you can get when you have a contract, for the latest, high-end, state of the art mobile phones. Most telecommunication companies offer big discounts (usually, hundreds of dollars) when you will be signing a contract with them. This is because they can earn that money from the amount of plan you have and the length of time your contract stands. It’s a win-win situation for the both of you. If you are not into having this kind of phones, then this will not be an issue for you.

If you think that you will have problems with coverage if you opt for prepaid plans, it is better that you go to larger networks such as Verizon and AT&T as these companies have great coverage all throughout the nation.

Nowadays, there are many service providers which offer monthly contracts. This is a much greater choice since you have the flexibility of no contract cell phones and you can get to avail the discounts which contract cell phones can give you. It’s the best of both worlds!

If you are looking for great mobile phone deals, Mingowireless.com offers the best deals in town.

Understanding the Hardware Requirements of Calling Card Billing Software

June 27th, 2009

If you have a prepaid call card business, then it is important for your company to use prepaid calling card billing software. Your software system can streamline you’re your business to make your operations more efficient. However, the software will not work if you do not have the necessary hardware. Your sophisticated business systems therefore will be totally useless if your hardware does not meet the requirements of prepaid calling card billing software. So here is a quick guide that will help you to understand the required hardware for your software.

If you are setting up the systems technology and prepaid calling card billing software of DTH Software Inc., then you will need two separate server machines. One server will reside on your secured local network where the prepaid calling card billing software should be installed. This setup is designed to protect sensitive data and billing information. The second server will host the portal services that you have to create for your customers and distributors. Because the service portal for customers and distributors will be very busy accepting queries and data requests, the possibility of malicious attacks is not far off. So you have to separate the billing software from this server.

For your prepaid calling card billing software, the server should have a 10GB minimum storage for the operating system and database application and 2GB per 1,000,000 call records. It should run on a Windows 2008 Server OS with installed MSSQL. DTH provides MSSQL Express edition for one server only. The billing software should also run on a 2Ghz Quad Core Xeon processor with 4GB RAM. Higher RAM is also recommended for faster transaction executions. If you have more than 10,000 transactions per hour on your server, then the hardware requirements should be higher in order to avoid performance issues.

The DTH calling card business system also provides a module for setting up customer portal and distributor portal. These portals can be used for self management and to improve the user experience of your clients and agents. If you have at least 250 users up to 500 users, then you will need a 2GHz Quad Core Xeon processor with at least 4GB of RAM. You should increase RAM up to 8GB so the portal interface will load and respond faster to queries. The storage of your web portal servers should have 15,000 RPM disk drives. Windows 2003 or 2008 Server edition is also required as the operating system of your portal server.

It is still possible to combine the billing software and the portal services into one server. However, you might experience serious security issues when you combine the two systems in one server. As a precautionary measure and to bulletproof you billing information and accounts from possible hacks, you have to make sure that the billing software has a dedicated secure server separate from the portal services. Understanding hardware requirements is important so you can fully maximize the usefulness of your billing software. If you lack the necessary hardware, your prepaid call card software might not work properly.
