Business needs, integration, efficiencies and new business models
Integration brings immediate benefits. Diverse applications that supply trading data, market forecasting, customer information, phone, email, voice recording playback and streaming news (RSS) can now be brought together in a single platform.
Each trader can customise their turret in the way that allows them to work with maximum efficiency. Traders can also view buddy lists and workgroup presence, initiating a workgroup conference at the touch of a button. SIP-enabled mobility allows team members to stay in touch with major deals whether they are down the hall or half way around the world.
OpenScape Xpert version 4 brings an explosion in productivity. Business critical applications like CRM and voice recording can now be integrated with back office bringing greater speed, accuracy and efficiency to the workplace without disrupting existing infrastructure or working processes.
The open application programming interface creates a wealth of opportunity to integrate real-time applications such as presence, on demand video conferencing or Instant message applications that make communications more effective, especially with back-office teams.
Productivity benefits also flow from the unlimited networking capability of OpenScape Xpert version
As well as being scaleable to over 1,000 users, OpenScape Xpert version 4 allows users to log in at any configured pc workstation in their corporate network. This global free seating would support mobility within your network and equally remote and flexible working practices. As our architecture is software built on industry standard hardware “soft clients” can easily be deployed for remote and flexible working practices.
Commercially appropriate and cost-effective
OpenScape Xpert version 4 is developed to address the dynamic nature of Traders and the Trading Floor to optimise Total Cost of Ownership.
Through this system architecture you will:
- Reduce service costs with simple administration.
- Reduce energy consumption with small footprint and efficiencies.
- Reduce complexity with simple user interfaces.
- Reduce administration costs with standard hardware
The modular design means moves, add-ons and changes can be centrally administered and implemented simply and at minimal cost.
Other cost advantages accrue from the fact that users are not tied in to proprietary hardware and can evolve their system as the need arises.
All of these benefits optimise Total Cost of Ownership, before the substantial productivity improvements enabled by OpenScape Xpert version 4 are taken into account.
Reliable, scalable and low risk
The advanced networking capabilities of OpenScape Xpert version 4 offer key disaster recovery benefits. Distributed server architectures hosted in secure and hardened data centres limit the impact caused by catastrophic incidents or unforeseen failures. If a workstation fails, the user can switch to another position. If a location fails, another will take over.
Data and individual preferences remain protected at all times and sensitive information is protected by voice encryption. As a fully integrated system it is quicker to identify mistakes, retrieve voice-recordings and put right any issues.
