Centralized CDRs collection Info360 Mercato Informatec
Software INFO360 MERCATO INFORMATEC allows the collection of CDRs generated by PBXs, gateways, softswitches and dialers, centrally, so they can be post-processed by third-party softwares. Informatec supports various forms and collection protocols, including systems that require encryption for access. The storage of CDRs is done in MS SQL Server database. Additionally, INFO360 MERCATO INFORMATEC emits a series of reports on the collected CDRs.

Automatic Operation The operation of Info360 Mercato Informatec is automatic: the CDRs generated by PBXs are collected centrally, analyzed and stored in the database. Of course, CDRs can always be reprocessed manually if necessary.

Interface 100% via web browser The interface of Info360 Mercato Informatec is fully operated via web browsers, killing the need for any kind of Windows application to use the product – whether it is by the system’s users or administrators.

Secure Access Info360 Informateccan be accessed securely via HTTPS. Optionally, it can be activated for access via HTTP.

Microsoft SQL Server Database The software uses a MS SQL Server database to offer reliability and scalability. For simpler setups, even the free version, MS SQL Express can be used. As a reference, each CDR occupies 1 kByte in the database.

Comprehensive Reports and Filter The use of 100% configurable filters, of any degree of complexity, means that the dozens of different reports are transformed into millions of options while maintaining the interface’s ease of use and consistence, as if by magic.

Multi-browser Interface Info360 Mercato Informatec is compatible with the main browsers and was developed to ensure that user and administrator tasks and configurations are intuitive, which results in administrative time and effort savings.

Customizable Dashboard A dashboard to fit your needs. You can personalize it to prioritize the information that is most important to your company, all with a simple, user friendly interface. Enjoy being able to check what the billing information that is most important to you, at a glance.

Multi-PBX There is no limit to the number of PABXs that can be used simultaneously by Info360 Mercato Informatec, nor is there a need for them all to be the same make or model. Obviously, the larger and more varied the PABXs used, the more robust the system’s infrastructure will have to be.

Connection authentication for CDRs collection Some equipment requires authentication of the connection for collection of CDRs. The Info360 Informatec implements various authentication methods, including: hmac-md5, hmac-md5-96, hmac-ripemd160, hmac-ripemd160-96, hmac-sha1, hmac-sha1-96, hmac-sha2-256, hmac-sha2-256-96, hmac-sha2-512, Hmac-sha2-512-96.

Multiple CDR collection PBXs have the most diverse ways to generate CDRs, and Info360 Mercato Informatec can handle all of them, including access encrypted via aes256-ctr, aes256-cbc, aes192-ctr, aes192-cbc, aes128-ctr , aes128-cbc, 3des-ctr, 3des-cbc, cast128-cbc, blowfish-cbc, arcfour, arcfour128 and arcfour256.

CDR collection running as a service Increased speed in processing CDRs, without the need to have sessions open on the collecting computers.

Automatic alarms Receive alarms via email, and also visually on the dashboard, if the PBX fails to generate CDRs or generate CDRs that meet requirements specified by you (eg, mobile phones for calls that are not leaving through the desired route).

CDRs conversion running as a service 10 times faster, on average, than similar versions together with great performance and reliability; all without the need to have sessions open on the collection computers.

Free Documentation and Training We know that such a complete tool as Info360 Mercato Informatec requires excellent training and documentation to be used in all its potential. For this reason, the product contains complete online documentation and Informatec makes available on the Internet an e-learning platform with free online training, 24 hours a day, which includes support material, learning tests and certification, covering the topics such as Installation, Operation and Maintenance.

BackupInfo360 Informatec has an automatic and scheduling (no limit) backup mechanism, which not only backs up phone calls per se, but also all information used by the system, including collection modules that are installed in a decentralized way. At the end of the process, a notification e-mail may be automatically sent.

Minimum Topology The topology is checked in accordance with the number of CDRs and simultaneous users.

Info360 Informatec can even work with just one computer, which would run SQL Server (that could be the free, Express version), the Collection Module, Billing Module and web server (IIS).

However, for more complex call accounting situations, such as a company with various branches, or mixed use, for example, where several PBX models are in use at the same time, high traffic volumes, such as those experienced by call centers, or intensive use, such as where several users need to access the system simultaneously, it is advisable to install the database on a server (or cluster), the billing module and IIS on a second computer and the collection module on subsequent computers.

Minimum specifications for a call flow of 100,000 calls per month, convertion of 20,000 CDRs/hour and up to 10 simultaneous accesses via web:
