So just out of curiousity for all the techies on the forum, how many different systems do you guys use on a regular basis?
I know for us at T-Mobile we have:
- Billing system for post paid
- neat in house website for all policies
- a searchable KB for tech stuff
- our coverage map for known issues and service requests
- A tech page for emerging issues
- Our tracking/ticketing system for advanced tech issues
- TS flows that give the non tech inclined step by step instructions how to fix things
- Network interface to make sure all is set up right
Those are the main ones, but there are always the minor ones DOTAC, OTA, downtime systems, prepaid billing system, all our desktop tools for email, ringtones, sidekicks, callertunes, etc...
But what do other providers use? More? Less?

tigress...consider yourself lucky. The streamline/samson system is in my opinion the best in the business. I used it for 2 1/2 years when I was working for T-Mobile and now that I'm with VZW I miss it even more. I'm glad that the other advantages of working for VZW more than make up for the system's shortcomings....

the Nextell billing system is also the same system that T-Mobile uses just different name.

Heh, I listed the ones used daily, as for total, hold on, let me take off my shoes...Nah, only 21 for the reps, but that's because a few have been combined into our internal site/systems like out Caller ID and warrenty tool.

see everything i do i was on the blue cofr team and we were the tdma cofr team so everything was axys then they thought that we needed siebel training for 3g cofr error corrections but they would not give us permissions for siebel to work the errors then they asked my team to do a special 3g cofr it took in siebel 8 hours to do 56 cofrs where in axys i would average 200 accounts in an 8 hour day
