SIMPLIFYING business operations
increases productivity, reduces costs and heightens efficiency—this allows
entrepreneurs to free up and manage their time better, so they can pursue their
hobbies and other passions.
“Whether
you have a big enterprise or a Small and Medium Business, Globe Business has
solutions for you. Our services simplify company’s processes and operations to
give entrepreneurs more time to focus on their business’ prime objective and
their personal pursuits,” said Manny Aligada, Head of Corporate & SME
Segments, Globe Business.
Here
are 10 ways to simplify business operations using products and services from
Globe Business:
1. Monitor your business anytime, anywhere.
Thanks to Globe Business’ WebEye, an online video surveillance system,
activities in one’s business premises may be monitored, at any time, thru the
Internet. The surveillance video is viewable by the business owner or top
management on any Internet device: a desktop computer; laptop; mobile phone or
tablet.
Any
business that needs to secure its premises—hotels, restaurants, bars or
resorts; factories; warehouses; retail outlets; government/law enforcement
agencies; financial institutions from banks to lending businesses;
moneychangers or pawnshops, etc.; hospitals and clinics; and schools—will reap
tremendous benefits from this service.
2. Stay connected.
The Internet plays a crucial role in businesses development as it helps
companies increase their visibility as well as make their production and
promotion more efficient at lower costs.
Globe
Business offers Direct Internet that provides high-speed Internet access for
SMEs. This reliable broadband connection provides up to 10 Mbps to help
businesses accept product orders, communicate with their employees and
customers, send reports in no time, and address their marketing and website
needs.
Direct
Internet also provides 24/7 support system to ensure that the Internet
connection is reliable. This service is usually availed of businesses with
provincial or international offices and those who are into business process
outsourcing and financial services and professional services.
Globe
Tattoo Broadband, meanwhile, gives you and your employees access to the
Internet anytime, anywhere. Wherever you are in the country you can check your
email, teleconference with your business partners and clients, and do your
business online with this fast, “on-the-go” wireless broadband.
You
can get a Tattoo Plan for as low as P499 per month.
3. Access your secured network anytime.
Two Globe Business products, Virtual Private Network (VPN) Express and the
Multi Protocol Label Switch (MPLS) allow business owners (or authorized
personnel) to remotely access business data and connect a company's branches
and company sites.
VPN
lets one read company emails, upload and download files, check reports, and do
other business tasks—even outside the office. This business solution ensures
private, secure communication between two or more multi-site companies. It
provides real-time connectivity and access to a company’s secured network.
Business owners may access business data and assist colleagues, all in real
time live from home or anywhere with Internet access.
VPN
Express provides highly secured and efficient networking. It is useful to
financing institutions; government agencies—practically any business where the
head office needs to connect with company sites.
MPLS
allows interconnection of systems and applications among business branches
within a scalable and reliable network. It's most useful to franchised food or
retail outlets; and any business whose branches need to coordinate with one
another to ensure quality service to customers.
A
sporting goods chain for example, may network its branches so customers are
able to find a particular athletic, exercise or gym product that may be
available in some branches but out of stock in others.
The
MPLS has three levels of Quality of
Service—Standard, Business, and Premium—to manage network traffic in a cost
effective manner.
4. Manage your phone call expenses.
Globe Business offers post paid plans that allow businesses choose the mobile
services that best address their needs.
With the packaged unlimited talk and/or texting features, subscribers
can save as much as 70% per month on
their mobile phone bills.
These
plans include: 1) Globe Business Plus, which offers unlimited talk and texting
features for as low as P499 per month; 2) Globe Business Company Capped Plans,
which sets a flexible cost ceiling for a business’s mobile lines; and 3) AutoloadMAX Corporate Edition, which helps
manage, schedule, and automatically reload Prepaid credits directly to
employees’ cell phones; it includes the option to reload employees’ lines
individually or in bulk; it may even
track down the mobile phone spending of a department or individual employees.
5. Make text messaging easier and cost-efficient.
If your business involves high-volume text campaigns, TxtConnect can help you
send SMS blasts to your employees and customers in just one send. This service
is web-based so it is easier to send SMS than regular text messaging or phone
calls. It's acts like your banjo musicians friend
TxtConnect
is likewise cost-efficient as it charges lower text message fees with a plan
that starts at P1500 per month. Subscribing to TxtConnect results in as much as
35% in saved cost compared to the regular text messaging service charges.
6. Secure your business data. Organizing and securing your business’ vital
data and ICT resources is now possible with Globe Business’ Data Center—a
technologically advanced, highly secured facility built for data storage.
Data
Center offers a wide range of services including co-location, dedicated service
hosting, LAN-based Internet, media storage, disaster recovery seats, recovery
services, and email hosting.
Any
business that relies on and processes huge amounts of data—especially
confidential information—like financial institutions, government agencies,
hospitals, schools, hotels, resorts, restaurant chains and the like will surely
benefit from this service.
Losing
data in this day and age, whether due to a computer virus, deliberate hacking,
spying or data theft; or computer hadware/system failure, is disastrous for
business. Globe Business’ Data Center prevents such a catastrophic loss of the
confidence and trust of clients and investors.
7. Install a trunk line that needs no operator.
Globe Business’ Integrated Services Digital Network - Primary Rate Interface
(ISDN PRI) is an innovative solution for business voice. It provides fast,
accurate data transmission over existing copper telephone wiring.
ISDN
PRI is composed of 30 channels with corresponding subscriber numbers capable of
both outgoing and incoming calls, providing direct connection without need to
pass through an operator. ISDN PRI provides clear, digital transmission for voice
and data communications.
This
service is ideal for businesses that need constant communication between
personnel in various departments and their customers; including hotels,
hospitals, insurance companies; shipping offices; government agencies; financial
institutions; call centers; mass media offices; franchised retail or food
outlets and the like.
8. Keep track of your supplies. Fleet
Management service offered by Globe Business is a real-time tracking system
that ensures the delivery and security of products and supplies. It uses a
Global Positioning System (GPS) to monitor the precise location of assets like
trucks, cargo and products and determine if these arrived at their
destination/delivery point on time.
Fleet
Management is easy to use and accessible through any computer with Internet
connection. This tracking system increases the efficiency of your deliveries,
helping reduce fuel and vehicle maintenance expenses when used to determine
faster routes. Manufacturing, retail, distribution and other businesses that
rely on the transport of goods will benefit from this service.
Fleet
Management is one of three products under Globe Business' M2M
(machine-to-machine) Solutions-- a high-tech system that allows computers,
machines, equipment and assets to remotely communicate and share information
with other machines, people and computers. M2M Solutions are connected to the
computerized Globe Business M2M Management System.
9. Manage your fixed assets remotely. Globe
Business' Fixed Asset Management service allows one to monitor the functioning,
operation and maintenance and security of a company's fixed assets—i.e.,
freezers, vendo machines, factory machinery, ATMs, computer servers, etc. This
way, the productivity of such assets may be determined through their status;
output projections may also be made based on the data collected from these
assets.
Fixed
Asset Management enables one to monitor the condition of fixed assets –whether
these are working normally or showing signs of malfunction. One can also track
if there are attempts to tamper, sabotage or steal these fixed assets. Alarms
and alerts may also be integrated with the monitoring system.
Through
Fixed Asset Management, companies minimize machine downtime by undertaking
preventive maintenance based on the collected data on the machine's status.
Operating costs due to frequent on-site inspections are reduced—the state of
the machine may already be determined through the data obtained remotely. There
is also increased protection of off-site machines.
This
service is ideal for restaurants and fast food chains; vendo operators; banks;
factories and other businesses engaged in manufacturing.
10. Pro-active security. Globe
Business has a Security and Surveillance service that gives owners greater
control over securing company sites. Security and Surveillance installs
security devices (such as motion and door sensors, panic buttons) that are
linked to Globe M2M Management System.
When
an intruder breaks in to the secured site for example, the M2M security devices
send out alerts through the computer network. This signals the system to deploy
an emergency response team to deal with the threat.
The
M2M Security and Surveillance system is pro-active and preventive: the security
devices are always ready to activate alarms and trigger an emergency response.
All
in all, Globe Business' M2M Solutions optimize the functionality and
productivity of a company's machines/assets. They make business operations less
costly yet more efficient. They also provide greater security and control over
a company's mobile and fixed assets.
M2M
Solutions are ideal for a wide range of businesses—including the food and/or
service industries (restaurants, resorts, hotels, etc.); financial enterprises
(banks, pawnshops, etc. ); manufacturing, distribution; practically any
business that benefits from machine-to-machine networking and pro-active
security.
