Keeping a WebEye on business

-

Anyone who has a business knows that profit and big gains can be made only with the right connections. And, making the right communication connections that are fast, reliable and accurate is what helps keep the business afloat. As the business grows, so does the community it serves.

Globe Telecom knows just what the needs of its business customers are, and the company has continued to provide services, which would best address these concerns.

As such, Globe has made available various business options for its various business consumers. There are heads of companies whose business communication needs are as wide-ranging as the businesses they head. There are those smaller businesses or even medium enterprises which do ask for business-specific communication needs.

Globe takes all this to heart and because of that it has and continues to develop the technology and services that its business clients require for their day-to-day operations.

There are various services, especially for the unique communication needs of the many retailers in the Philippines. Among these services are Globe WebEye, Visibility and Store Express, which were featured at the recently concluded 16th National Retailers Conference and Stores Asia Expo 2007.

Globe is one of the Philippine Retailers Association’s corporate partners in this annual conference. The exhibit gathered the country’s retail owners and industry suppliers at the Edsa Shangri-La in Mandaluyong City.

Globe helps out the country’s retailers through its services that enrich businesses by providing them useful and easy-to-use communications services.

There is the Globe’s WebEye which enables a business owner to keep an eye on what’s going on in his store, factory or warehouse at any time of the day, wherever he is, via the Internet.

It makes it easy for businesses with retail outlets and multiple sites within the country to regularly check on each location and ensure efficient operations through an online video surveillance system. 

WebEye is easy to set up, as it requires a Globe Broadband package (static IP address included), a compatible camera and a router. With it, a business customer gets high-quality digital images in real time via a computer. This allows the consumer to feel more secure, and it also saves on time and cost of travel to retail outlets. At the end of a business day, it allows businessmen to run their operations effectively.

This online video solution addresses the need of retail companies and small and medium enterprises for reliable round-the-clock business surveillance.

It works in three simple steps. First, the images are captured and digitized by the IP camera. These images are then sent to the Internet via the Globe Broadband dedicated access. The video images can be viewed from any Web browser, anywhere there is Internet access.

The owner of Filipino fast food chain Binalot uses the WebEye to keep track of operations in his various outlets even from home by simply logging on to the Web via broadband Internet connection, giving him flexibility and peace of mind.

Visibility, Store Express

Globe also offers Visibility and Store Express for retailers. Visibility provides unlimited mobile broadband Internet connections via HSDPA as well as 3G, EDGE, GPRS and Wi-Fi and even dial-up. It offers unparalleled connectivity as it provides fast Internet access anytime and anywhere users need to be connected. 

Responding to one’s needs for convenience and access to the Internet, Globe gives subscribers more thoughtful and flexible choices for a truly mobile productivity — so they could fulfill their information and data needs on demand at the speeds they need whenever and wherever they want it.

With Visibility, subscribers can turn their laptop into a true mobile office with access to the Worldwide Web at their fingertips — unleashing its storehouses of information and opportunities for connectivity.

Being the first to bring HSDPA or “Super 3G” technology in Asia last year, Globe has actively been raising the bar to bring the next generation in mobile broadband to its subscribers, offering them the benefits and productivity gains of wireless connectivity.

HSDPA technology delivers mobility and speed, allowing its users to experience the convenience and productivity of wireless broadband connectivity.

With its much wider bandwidth and higher transmission rates, HSDPA also enables clearer streaming video experiences and faster Internet access and downloads while on the move. Thus, Visibility users get Internet access at astronomical speeds for complete and unhindered mobility at all times.

Jesus Romero, head of Globe’s Enterprise Business Group, said, “Globe has developed various solutions specifically for the needs of the retailers in the country. Probably most useful for a retail company’s day-to-day operations is the Store Express that conveniently links the main office to all of its branches nationwide for fast and reliable access to important information such as sales and inventory. There’s also Visibility, Globe’s mobile broadband access that runs via HSDPA, 3G, EDGE, GPRS and Wi-Fi, to keep entrepreneurs connected to the Internet anytime and anywhere they need it.”

“We don’t stop here. We put in a lot of effort to equip our customers with cutting-edge technology and the latest communication solutions that will benefit their businesses. This is our commitment to our customers, who see us as their partners in delivering their products and services to their clients and ultimately to the consumers,” Romero added.

Store Express allows a company to link all its branches to the main office for fast access to key business information such as outlet sales and inventory. It enables corporate customers to become globally competitive with its cost-effective, secure and reliable solutions. No matter how big or small a business requires, Store Express can be scaled as the business grows and to suit its needs.

Globe understands how retailers operate and has thus bundled solutions for their specific needs. As companies expand and put up more outlets in different locations, they should be able to monitor sales and inventory in real time and simplify their business processes for better efficiency and productivity. To do this, Globe offers Store Express that provides a fast and secure connection for quick and reliable access to business transactions.

Store Express is a fast, cost-effective and reliable solution specifically designed and bundled to address the IT and networking requirements of the retail industry and help businesses become more globally competitive.

Rustan Supercenters, Starbucks and Van Heusen are among Globe’s other clients that utilize Visibility and Store Express. – Kathy Moran
