Rating of the best SIM-banks for 2022

Modern offices lose a huge amount of money due to the enormous spending on calls both within the company and with customers. Without this, it is currently impossible to develop a business, provide services, attract customers. Mobile operators provide a certain number of minutes to other operators, including landline numbers, but this is hardly enough for those whose job is incessant negotiations. During the day, a person is forced to call from a work phone to mobile, which leads to significant expenses. GSM gateways are designed to tie the available communication formats into one device, the cost of which is relatively small.

What it is

SIM-bank is a device that allows you to connect several SIM-cards to the system at the same time. What is the principle of their action? After connecting the SIM cards via a GSM gateway, control will be carried out through a pre-installed IP network. The gateways themselves can be located anywhere in the world, and the SIM cards will remain at hand. The operator will fix the location of the gateway, not the sims. Designed for remote control.

Such a device for most of the inhabitants remains incomprehensible, and therefore unnecessary. GSM gateways are used to convert analog type signals into IP telephony or digital signals. In fact, it is a bridge that allows you to transfer traffic in any direction.

The device makes it possible to connect several SIM cards to one unit. However, the functionality of the bridge is somewhat wider:

1. Temporary replacement of existing SIM-cards on pre-installed gateways is allowed. The reasons can be either temporary, based on certain events, or permanent (planned replacements).
2. Cards will be distributed automatically according to temporary rules.
3. Quick installation or replacement of cards, according to the attached step-by-step instructions.
4. Centralized management of cards, including at home.

Sims can be replaced at any time or swapped. The scenario of the gateways, which can be designed for 1000 SIM cards, is also programmed separately. Between themselves, the gateways can be docked, which makes it possible to change the SIM in different cities and even countries. This creates the illusion that the card is moving.

What is it needed for

The advantages of such equipment are obvious for large firms and large enterprises. For greater convenience, the main advantages are listed below in the form of a comparative table:

What to look out for	Description	Benefit
Keep in touch	Installation of a cell phone parallel to the stationary bridge.	If the person does not answer on the landline phone, the call will be automatically transferred to the mobile phone. Employees are always connected.
Long distance and international calls	You will need to install VOIP-GSM gateways in another country or region. The connection is made through an active VPN channel through office PBXs.	The cost of such services will be equal to intranet calls.
Remote office equipment	The area must be covered by one of the existing bridges. There may be several reasons for this decision: • the operator's signal level is not strong enough; • seasonality of object use; • irrationality of laying a full-fledged wired telephony. The effectiveness of an external antenna will be questionable. A regular telephone line interface is connected.	The irrationality of laying a telephone cable to remote sites. After installation of the device, a mini-ATS, a radiotelephone or a conventional device is connected.
Save on phone bills	The signal is converted from mobile to telephone. The cost will be equal to making a mobile call. Savings are made due to the independent installation of SIM cards in cellular bridges, which are characterized by the presence of corporate tariffs. Traffic becomes unlimited, but for a fee. Thus, any calls will go into intranet mode.	A significant reduction in the cost of servicing cellular operators for individuals and companies. Savings on telephony up to 75%.

What are

In the modern market, products from both Aliexpress and designs called GoIP are in the greatest demand. Popular models are equipped with lots for 32 and 128 sims. Who will benefit from them? Everyone, without exception, offices, service and call centers. Also, special attention should be paid to the declared functions and brands of manufacturers.

Conclusion

When choosing a SIM-bank, special attention should be paid to the functionality declared by the manufacturer. If there is a need for a simple and, at the same time, productive device, then units that work with several cards should be preferred. In the event that ATC is not in the office for any reason, the buyer is advised to consider purchasing a design with FXO ports. In this way, it will be possible to make a direct connection between the telephones and the plant.

For large support services, with a huge number of clients or the need for frequent and lengthy negotiations, expensive and professional systems should be preferred. In such installations, there are several slots for SIM cards.

They are used for significant savings in negotiations. Proper connection of the unit to the PC will allow replacing the secretary with a similar device. The system can easily record messages, announce a greeting and monitor not only incoming but also outgoing calls. For the modern leader, this may be the best option.
