Consolidate Multiple Devices

Equipping mobile employees with a single business phone number provides a key benefit: device consolidation. Managing multiple devices for multiple employees is an IT headache that has slowly crept into corporate life. For many companies, the mobile communications infrastructure can be a blend of various private cell phones approved on a case-by-case basis.

You may find different brands and carrier plans department by department – or even employee by employee. Supporting a variety of phones and is difficult for IT staff as this means they have to become familiar with a plethora of devices. Just as how companies standardize on a type of computer brand, they can standardize on a cell phone brand and single carrier service. This makes support a much faster and simpler task, thus freeing up IT staff time to accomplish other pressing jobs.

Consolidating devices also helps for financial record-keeping. Rather than having individuals submit phone bills with their monthly expenses, DiVitas makes mobile costs a single item that is manageable by IT staff.
