SL2™️ from CellTrust drives mobile productivity and compliance for PCM

Young, dynamic, financial technology-savvy, and mobile, members of the client advisory team at Payne Capital Management (PCM) found it challenging to tell their clients that they couldn’t send them text messages because of compliance restrictions. An advisor’s only alternative was managing two cell phones: their personal phone and a protected one that belonged to the company. In response to this need, PCM selected the CellTrust SL2™️ Enterprise Mobile app with a built-in mobile business number (MBN) feature to provide advisors with privacy and their clients with a direct line, while capturing and archiving any work-related conversations conducted on advisors' personal phones to achieve regulatory compliance.

Customer Challenges

Before PCM adopted CellTrust SL2, the financial company’s advisors had to explain to their clients that they couldn’t communicate via text message—a communication method often suggested by clients because of its convenience. When an advisor was forced to respond to or send a text message on their personal mobile phone, they would have to make a screen grab to archive every work-related text message. Widespread sharing of personal contact information was also an issue for PCM advisors.

Partner Solution

Developed for the Microsoft Azure cloud, SL2 provides enterprises and small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs) like PCM with greater security for mobile communication across their networks. SL2 captures communication via SMS/MMS, WhatsApp, Voice, and A2P mobile campaigns. The platform is available on both the Azure global and Azure Government clouds. SL2 is integrated with Microsoft Teams, the Microsoft 365 E5 enterprise solution, and other leading archiving technologies to enable long-term retention. The platform also provides optional integration with Microsoft Endpoint Manager (including Intune), MobileIron AppConnect, BlackBerry Dynamics, and AppConfig.

Customer Benefits

PCM financial advisors have continued using their personal phones, and they can now also exchange text messages with their clients, confident in the knowledge that any work-related texts are being captured and archived in accordance with financial compliance regulations. In 2020, when working from home became the norm for the PCM team, SL2 with built-in MBN set boundaries between work and private life on the advisors' mobile phones, while seamlessly capturing and archiving work-related texts.

“We have fully integrated CellTrust SL2 in the Microsoft Azure cloud into our firm’s compliance systems, and now we have a high level of comfort. Not only do our advisors have what they need to stay leading-edge, we are now confident that our mobile communications are in line with the latest industry regulations. ”
