Applied Satellite Technology (AST) Ltd, today announced the official launch of its unique Iridium Certus 200 service offering, with real-time alerting capabilities ensuring customers’ stay fully in control of MB allowances.
AST’s exclusive real-time data alerting software, INTEGRA Control Lite allows users to monitor usage and be alerted as defined thresholds are crossed accurately and automatically. A user is also able to block the service or category once a threshold is reached, giving a greater level of risk mitigation against excessive usage – all in real-time and without needing to process Call Data Records (CDRs).
AST Group Chairman and Founder, Gregory Darling commented:
“AST is delighted to bring Iridium Certus 200 to the market coupled with our INTEGRA Control Lite service. This exclusively enables AST customers to see their data usage and manage it through real-time alerting to avoid unintended costs due to exceeding MB plan allowance”.
