ERP-level performance, without the hassles of ERP.
No ERP hassles. Let's face it; Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software has a bad reputation. Often, these monolithic programs are a nightmare to install, requiring years, huge expenditures, and worst of all, the customer must fit its processes and organization to the software.
CommADVISOR delivers ERP-level performance, without these hassles.
- Because it is offered in a "software as a service" model, there is no software to install or manage. You are up and running as soon as your billing stream and contracts can be accessed from your carrier, typically a few weeks. But there is nothing you have to do to get started. No consultants crawling through your files and disrupting your business.
- CommADVISOR let's you keep your processes intact. No need to change your organization or players.

Why no ERP coverage of Telecom Expense and Resource Planning? Ever wonder why no ERP package today covers telecom expense and resource management? After all, this is the fastest growing expense item in the corporation. It is also the largest common corporate process; yet, it is omitted by virtually all ERP packages.
The short answer is that telecom expense and resource management has several deep-seated problems that make it substantially more problematic than any areas covered today by ERP. Basically, this domain does not meet the typical pre-conditions required by traditional ERP development techniques.
- Data sources are uncontrollable
- The system needs to be process-driven, not a merely database of record
- There are vastly disparate data feeds
- There are significant maintenance and updating requirements
- Data is inaccurate and incomplete, requiring complex analysis to resolve
- Disparate billing formats makes analysis problematic
- There is no means to automate contractual terms and conditions to enable automated analysis of the bill.
