Centralize subscriber information

Pricing of the Subscriber Register depends on several factors, such as your set-up and requirements. These are the most important aspects that determine pricing:

• Local or cloud hosting: the solution can either run in the cloud or in a local data center. Cloud hosting gives you more flexibility and is most cost-effective.
• Market size: a bigger market (e.g., number of operators connected) means more data processing, which may impact platform requirements and support needs.
• Specific needs: implementing the Subscriber Register is based on international best practices, resulting in an economical solution and short time to market.
• Contract term: a longer contract gives you more time and opportunity to recover costs.

It is definitely possible to transfer existing data to the Subscriber Register. We will analyze the existing data together and define a migration strategy based on that analysis as part of the project.

The Subscriber Register is beneficial to regulators, operators and end users, providing a central solution for the accessing and processing of subscriber data.

• Benefits for regulators and operators: one central and secure place for the registration of subscriber details in order to easily comply with laws and regulations.
• Benefits for third parties: functionality is included to give selected organizations (such as emergency services or law enforcement agencies) access to the centralized Subscriber Register.
• Benefits for end users: subscribers are able to view their personal details stored and their directory listing preferences. They can also easily set their unsolicited call preferences.

Running the Subscriber Register in the cloud is the most effective, and usually the safest way to operate. It eliminates all the disadvantages of maintaining and updating local infrastructure. Our application is secure by design, and we take technical and organizational measures for data security and availability. These measures include regular audits and assessments of our solutions, carried out by an independent company.

Also consider these general safety benefits of a state-of-the-art cloud infrastructure:

1.  Increased availability: in the cloud, the platform data is stored in multiple data centers that are geo-redundant. If one server goes down, the other server instantly takes over. Achieving this on a local level is expensive.
2. Improved physical security: major cloud providers such as Microsoft and Amazon spare no expense to protect their data centers. They have state-of-the-art physical and digital security, as well as round-the-clock security monitoring.
3. 24/7 security monitoring: cloud providers invest in a security operations center (SOC), monitoring the infrastructure 24/7. It is costly and challenging to achieve this on a local level.
4. Up-to-date hardware: in order to run a secure platform locally, hardware has to be replaced when its economical and physical lifecycle ends (usually every five years). This often includes renewing software licenses. Cloud providers invest in hardware and maintain it regularly to keep their infrastructure up-to-date.

An optional subscriber web portal allows end users to view and modify personal data. This portal will be read-only by default, so end users can only view their personal data stored. It is up to you to decide if end users are granted permission to modify data themselves, or if this should be done via their operator upon request.
