Why choose PTT over phone calls
Different businesses and organisations will have varying compelling reasons to choose PTT over ordinary mobile phone communications
The major benefits of choosing PTT include:
- Reduced operating costs - PTT uses the GPRS data channel on the mobile network rather than the GSM Voice channel. Data is much cheaper than voice so you pay less for more, and PTT compatible handsets are easily affordable.
- Controlled monthly bills - when using PTT, all your inter-company communication is taken care of, so you won't be paying for private phone calls or text messages.
- Improved mobile worker visibility - PTT will show you who is online and who is unavailable, so you never need go to voicemail again. GPS handsets also allow you to locate your workers with satellite tracking and help you keep them safe.

Push To Talk (PTT) is a business radio service that uses GSM mobile phones instead of walkie-talkies. It allows instant communication either on a one-to-one basis or as a broadcast to a group of people using Push To Talk (PTT) technology on their mobile phones.
Push To Talk is quicker than a phone call because there is no number to dial. To make a call, the caller simply pushes a button on the phone and talks. It is similar to a walkie-talkie but has the advantage of almost unlimited coverage as it uses the global GSM mobile phone network. |
