Qatar Telecom has launched BillXpress, a new software that is reported to enable businesses to manage communication costs effectively.

According to Qatar Telecom (Qtel), BillXpress is expected to enable corporate clients to see all communications costs online in real-time, through an easy-to-access interface that helps companies itemize communication across different departments and cost centers.

The BillXpress enables businesses to better understand which areas are driving communication costs, and also develop policies that ensure full return on communication investment, said Qtel.

This new online service from Qtel delivers a number of key features including easy registration and password encryption; secure online logins; and the ability to retrieve historic bills, added Qtel.

In addition, BillXpress has been configured to generate pre-defined dynamic reports, so that companies can integrate the management of communication costs into their business strategy, and even download and submit standard payment report files directly to Qtel.

Khalid Abdulla Al-Mansouri, executive director of business solutions at Qtel, said: Qtel enjoys very strong relationships with our corporate clients, and we have continued to discuss and analyze their changing needs with them. One area where we recognized that we could provide significant value to our clients was in the area of clearer management and enhanced transparency of communication costs.
