Next Generation OSS
 

Calculate your Return on Investment

This simplified version of Eftia's ROI calculator is intended to provide a rough indication of the savings associated with installing a large scale OSS like Eftia's Master Scribe®. Eftia's OSS comprises order entry, order processing, trouble ticketing, inventory management, and number tracking.

The real benefit of this ROI calculator is the framework it provides for comparing revenues and costs with and without a proposed OSS system. This framework serves as a focus for discussing the specific savings an OSS could bring to your company. The calculations below are intended to be only a very rough indicative of the actual ROI, which can only be determined by a thorough application of the Eftia model to your specific circumstances.
