As businesses grow, their mobile communication needs evolve. What may have worked for a startup in its early days—such as using personal devices for business purposes—becomes inadequate as the company scales. That’s where business SIMs, particularly eSIMs, come into play. Whether you're managing a small team or a large enterprise, business SIM solutions offer the flexibility, cost control, and scalability required to manage multiple employees, devices, and communication demands effectively.
In this article, we'll explore how business SIM solutions can support businesses through different stages of growth, from startups to enterprises. We'll also share real-life examples of companies using PiPcall's business solutions to scale their communication effectively.
Flexible Plans That Grow with Your Business
Starting Small with BYOD Solutions
For startups, cost efficiency is a priority. One of the most significant expenses for small businesses is providing employees with mobile devices. To avoid these costs, many startups opt for Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policies, allowing employees to use their personal devices for work. However, BYOD comes with its challenges, particularly when it comes to managing business communication separately from personal use.
Case Study: Supporting Startups with PiPcall’s Mobile+ App
A London-based tech startup with just 10 employees approached PiPcall, needing a professional communication system without the burden of buying business phones. PiPcall implemented the Mobile+ app, which allowed the team to use their personal devices for business calls. The app provided business numbers and advanced phone features like call transfer, voicemail, and call recording. This gave the startup a professional communication solution while avoiding the costs of new hardware.
Outcome: The company saved on upfront hardware costs while ensuring professional communication. As the business grew, they were able to transition seamlessly to PiPcall's eSIM and other solutions.
Expanding to Business-Provided Mobile Devices
As a company grows, so does its budget. At this stage, many businesses begin to provide employees with dedicated business phones to maintain a clear separation between work and personal communication. With PiPcall’s eSIM and Mobile+ solutions, businesses can offer employees reliable business numbers and advanced phone system features. These services are scalable, ensuring that businesses can start small and grow without disruption.
Case Study: Retail Business Expanding with BYOD and eSIM
A growing retail company with 50 employees required a hybrid solution—combining BYOD for remote workers and eSIMs for in-house staff with business-provided phones. PiPcall offered a tailored solution that allowed employees to continue using their personal devices for business communication while new employees received eSIM-enabled phones. The Mobile+ app ensured that all employees, regardless of device, had access to the same business communication features.
Outcome: The business was able to scale seamlessly, adding employees without worrying about device compatibility or communication infrastructure.
Easy Management of Multiple Lines and Users
Simplified Device Management with eSIMs
As businesses grow larger, managing multiple users and devices becomes more complex. This is where the PiPcall portal comes in. With this centralised system, IT managers can easily assign and manage eSIMs, add international numbers, and activate travel SIMs—all without handling physical SIM cards.
For companies that rely on international travel or have employees working remotely, this is a game-changer. The ability to remotely manage devices and assign numbers through a portal streamlines processes and saves both time and money.
Case Study: Construction Company Scaling to an Enterprise
A construction company with over 300 employees needed a reliable solution to manage mobile communication across multiple sites, including international workers. PiPcall provided eSIMs for staff with business-provided phones and Travel eSIMs for employees frequently working abroad. The IT team used the PiPcall portal to allocate eSIMs and assign international numbers, managing everything from a single, centralised platform.
Outcome: The construction company maintained seamless communication across all teams, reduced costs related to international roaming, and streamlined device management through the portal.
