Many financial organizations today arm their workers with mobile phones to increase worker productivity allowing business to be transacted any place, any time. However, mobile devices largely fall outside corporate oversight and can open an organization up to verification, liability, compliance, and risk issues. As such, users are not always free to transact business on mobile devices due to the inability to monitor and record calls as is done with desk phones and turrets. However, the mobile phone is a powerful asset to financial services community. To comply with the stringent requirements of the financial industry, a sophisticated, secure, manageable, easy to use solution is required. Tango Networks’ Abrazo Unified Communications (UC) Application delivers just such a solution.

Secure, Manageable Connectivity

The Abrazo UC application integrates any mobile phone into the institution’s primary telecommunications system; thereby enabling the mobile phone to act the same as an office phone. Based on specified policies (managed by the business) only the office phone number is needed to reach the user. A single phone number ensures all calls are routed through the business communications center and can be tracked or recorded if necessary. In addition, Abrazo enables use of a unified voice mail system instead of separate mailboxes for mobile and office. Directing all messages to one mailbox not only makes life simpler for the user but also helps the business meet necessary compliance requirements.

Sophisticatedly, Simple Management.

Abrazo UC is built upon a sophisticated federated network design that puts control in the network, not in the user’s hand. This control, although very powerful, is simple to implement and manage. As regulations change, corporate calling policies can be updated across the company immediately. New offices and staff can be added quickly. Because Abrazo works with most major PBX and UC solutions on the market, acquired assets can be integrated with ease.
