Compatible PBXs

Info360 Informatec Licensing There are 2 options for licensing the software: you can buy it (perpetual licensing) and pay for it only once, or lease it (monthly payment)..

Integration with Numerical Portability database  NEW  The integration with Numerical Portability database, provided by third parties, allows Info360 Informatec to calculate the value of the telephone connection taking into account which provider belongs the telephone number in question.

Interface 100% via web browser The Info360 Informatec call accounting interface 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 phone call occupies 1 kByte in the database.

Security mechanisms Info360 Informatec has several mechanisms to increase security in access to information. Among them is the automatic processing of passwords used by users with the possibility of (a) Requirement of strong passwords, (b) Non-reuse of passwords, (c) Automatic password blocking after unsuccessful attempts, (d) Automatic password expiration and (e) Encryption in the storage of passwords.

Comprehensive Reports and Filters The use of 100% configurable filters applicable to most reports, 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 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.

Missed Calls Information Info360 Informatec also allows you to generate report about missed calls (as long as the PBX has the ability to generate CDRs about them) for incoming, outgoing and internal calls.

Differentiated Billing Rules Info360 Informatec allows you to define differentiated billing rules (for example, by trunks), dependent on the Access Code, Authorization Code, essentially what you need to define.

Values of telephone calls via rates packages Allows telephone calls to be charged based on rates packages. For example, the first 10000 minutes are charged with one rate and the additional minutes with another rate.

Bill Importing The Informatec Info360 solution allows you to import all the calls made by mobile devices and group them the telephone accounts for each user. Supported format: FEBRABAN.

Comparison between Telephone Companies Info360 Informatec compares the account you pay for your current telephone company with other telephone companies (and other rate plans), and shows how much you spend on each of the scenarios. This way, you can simulate if it is worth changing the operator (or rate plan).

Real-Time Pre-Paid It allows the assignment of credits to the users and if there is a call in progress when the credits finish it will be automatically terminated. This ensures that users will not spend 1 cent more than allowed.

Management by Goals Allows for the placing of ceilings on users’ spending and, if necessary, the automatic blocking of the telephone after the ceiling has been reached via, for example, COS (Class Of Service), FAC (Forced Authorization Code), CSS (Calling Search Space), COR List. This feature is also known as Pre-paid.

Private calls attesting PBX users may quickly and easily, via web browsers, attest which call are to be considered personal.

Consumption Monitoring Monitor in real time directly in the Dashboard, consumption (in cumulative minutes or cumulative value) by type of call, by carrier or route, and receive alerts via email when reached configurable threshold.

Account Code Info360 Informatec call accounting software treats the CDRs issued by PBXs containing the Project Code to issue, automatically, phone bills to be charged to customers. This feature is commonly used by law firms, coworking companies and service providers.

Calls tracking Know the full path of each incoming or outgoing call: who initiated it, whom it was transferred to, and who terminated it.

Asset inventory Through a generic interface you can control the inventory of assets such as cell phones, gateways, routers, software licenses, agreements and virtually any item you wish. And, if there is an expiration date for the item (for example, expiration of the contract with the telephone company), you can be automatically notified via email, in advance, so you can prepare.

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 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.

Multi-PBX There is no limit to the number of PABXs that can be used simultaneously by Info360 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.

Monitoring and alarms via SNMP (SNMPv1, SNMPv2 and Secure SNMPv3) Via SNMP, you can monitor the main parameters of the software, as well as be automatically informed about anomalies in the system.

Automatic alarms and Anomalies monitoring 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).

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

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.

Compatibility with InfoBuffer360 Informatec Software Info360 Informatec is fully compatible with all versions of InfoBuffer360 Informatec.

Interactive, drill-down cost center reports All of the cost center’s information available through the same interface from the company down to the extensions.

Preset and record report parameters Very useful if you need to issue monthly reports.

Configure PBX CDRs through the interface Reduce processing preparation times.

Automatic reporting All reports can be configured to be issued automatically, with no limit to the number of configured schedules, including their respective parameters, via email *TLS/SSL), printing, file etc. and formats like PDF, XLS, DOC, RTF, ODT, ODS, TXT etc.

Scalability Neither highly complex topologies nor massive data volumes are too much for Info360 Informatec to handle due to its scalability in data collection, information processing or report issuing.

Survivability (High Availability) For situations in which the physical failure of computers should not lead to the call accounting stop, Info360 Informatec implements survivability mechanisms, with fully transparent operation for users.

Integration with Data Analytics systems Info360 Informatec has seamless integration with Data Analytics systems like Microsoft Power BI, Qlik, Tableau etc., so that the user works on a single interface.

Integration with third party softwares Info360 Informatec call accounting can be integrated with third party solutions in a variety of ways and for a variety of reasons. A typical example is found in hotels, where the call costs must be sent to a PMS (local or centralized) so that they can be charged to guests

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:
  • Intel Core i7 or superior
  • 16 GB RAM or more
  • Windows 11, 10 or 8 or 7 (Pro or superior), Windows Server 2019 or 2016 or 2012 or 2008, 32 or 64 bits. Find here the list of supported operating systems.
  • Microsoft SQL Server (EXPRESS, STANDARD or ENTERPRISE) 2017, 2016, 2014, 2012 or 2008. CORE LICENSE ou 1 CAL per user with direct access to the software. Find here the list of supported databases.
  • SSD 500 GB or superior (on average, each phone call occupies 2 kB)
  • Network interface 100 or superior, with fixed IP
  • Internet access
  • Important: Informatec scales the case-by-case system with the commercial proposal, free of charge
Configuration of users' computers
  • macOS
  • Windows 11, 10, 8, 7, Vista or XP
