Alekstra Helps Rovio to Manage Mobile Telephony Services Globally
Rovio signed up as an Alekstra client in July 2012 and began using the Intelligent Phone Bill service. This involves Alekstra analyzing mobile data, voice and SMS volumes and then choosing the best possible combination that fits Rovio’s rapidly evolving needs. Catching invoicing errors and monitoring the largest spenders are part of the Intelligent Phone Bill package. Alekstra also provides Rovio a web portal that enables key managers to monitor changing billing trends on a monthly basis.
Savings resulting from the first round of optimization are 10-15% of the domestic mobile data usage – and 40% of the SMS unit price. Rovio’s decision to move mobile billing management to Alekstra is freeing up an estimated two days of management time per month. Rapidly growing companies face unique challenges in managing their mobile telephony services. Mobile voice, minute and data needs change quickly on the domestic level – but in addition, there are further complications in juggling the various roaming services in Europe, North America and Asia. Alekstra’s deep knowledge of operator billing policies in countries including Canada, United States, Germany, UK, Russia, Hong Kong, China etc. helps growing companies to manage their global expansion in the most cost-effective manner.
