Inmate Phone Solution

"Making Cents of our Solutions "

We all know that coordinating inmate communications within your facility is a top priority. Phone calls to loved ones affect inmate well-being, your ability to manage their behavior, how well you can secure revenues for your facility, your ability to control overcrowding and most importantly, your capacity to maintain the “status quo” within your four walls. For these reasons and more, choosing the right vendor to manage your facility’s inmate phone program is crucial to your daily operations.

How would you like to have a system that is completely configurable to your specific needs? How about one that integrates seamlessly with your current network and jail management platform? What about one that you are able to access from anywhere that has an internet connection - any time, day or night? Congratulations. You’ve just stumbled upon the product you’ve been waiting for. Our Offender Communication System (OCS) capitalizes on all of these features and more! It is a very user-friendly application designed for every level of criminal justice staff. Read below for more information on how this state-of-the-art inmate phone system can Improve Your Experience.

Our Promise To You

  2. To thoroughly train system users in all aspects of the software they have purchased and ensure they are well-equipped to carry out daily activities with ease; and

Access From Anywhere

With our inmate phone system, you can control your phone system from anywhere, at any time. With internet access, you can listen to recordings, monitor live phone conversations, change configurations, suspend specific calls and actual phone units or handle almost anything else you would normally do from your desk.

Call Monitoring and Recording

According to the FBI, the trend in the United States is that less than four percent of inmate telephone calls and/or call recordings are monitored or listened to by criminal justice agencies. A small facility of one hundred beds could have more 25 hours of recorded calls every single day! This would take a minimum of three full-time staff members working non-stop to listen to this many hours of recordings. Does your staff have time for this?

 

Use our inmate phone system to silently monitor inmate calls from any device that has a sound card and speakers. Choose a specific phone number, inmate, phone or group of phones. One simple key press allows you to start recording the call while you are monitoring. Call recordings are all digital and available at any time. Choose how you want to record them. Search makes it easy to find, play, and copy recordings. Store your recordings on a variety of media devices such as CD, DVD and network storage devices. Export and email your recordings to investigators. All at the touch of a button!
