Monthly Traffic
4 min
Monthly Traffic provides graphical views of how usage changes from month to month across your SIM estate.
Charts are available as both:
- Total usage across all SIMs
- Average usage per SIM
This allows you to distinguish between growth driven by SIM volume and growth driven by increased usage per device.
Traffic types covered
Monthly Traffic charts include:
- Data
- SMS MO (Mobile Originated)
- SMS MOIP (Mobile Originated over IP)
- SMS MT (Mobile Terminated)
- Voice
Each traffic type is displayed separately, allowing clearer comparison across billing periods.
Zone breakdown
Usage occurring outside the base zone is split out by zone.
This makes it easier to identify:
- Emerging roaming patterns
- Unexpected out-of-zone behaviour
- Changes in geographic usage over time
Group selection
Charts can be filtered to display:
- All groups
- Individual groups
This allows comparison between specific configurations or customer segments.
