DEPLOYMENT STEPS

  • Load the app on to the device.  This can be done any way that software can be loaded on the device.  Common methods include pushing the app over the air using centralized software deployment tools or simply clicking on an install link from the device
  • Once the app is installed on the device it will automatically connect in to the Telicost Server to start tracking the device usage
  • At this point the administrator has central control of the app on the device and can push plans and policies from the Server to the device
  • Sit back and let Telicost warn both the user and the administrator when a costly/critical event occurs such as plan overages, international roaming or usage anomalies
