5 Mission Critical Considerations for Back Office Usage Rating & Billing Solutions

The enterprise ecosystem is on the brink of a transformative explosion with projections of 40 billion connected devices by 2025. This growth is reshaping the service provider landscape, necessitating consolidation and network convergence, and demanding unprecedented granularity and flexibility in service offerings.

Shifting Dynamics in Service Provision

The demand to monetize unique bundles and tiering is causing a paradigm shift from low volume, high-value events to which today’s service providers are accustomed, to providing high-value offerings that protect margins and grow revenue in the high-volume usage economy marketplace.

To succeed in the enterprise space, a company’s back-office solution must be powerful and poised to adjust at the ready.

Top 5 Considerations for Back-Office Solutions

  1. Agile and Flexible Systems
    To thrive amidst market consolidation, providers must deploy personalized, agile offerings that adapt to diverse transaction types and extend beyond traditional markets.
  2. Transparency in Transactions
    Accuracy in billing is now crucial due to dynamic business models. Providers need transparent systems that offer a real-time, comprehensive view of customer transactions.
  3. Extensible Solutions
    Extensibility is essential for seamless integration with various toolsets, enhancing performance and reducing costly integration times. In today’s enterprise market, every minute spent trying to get a new tool up and live or working across disparate systems that resist integration is money wasted.
  4. Uncompromised Security
    In the cloud environment, robust security measures are critical to protect against fraud, especially with the increase in IoT/M2M connectivity. A system must be designed in a way that not only enables a user to monitor for the most finite of fraudulent behaviors but also guarantees the greatest security in storage, as well.
  5. Advanced Automation
    Automated billing systems are vital to eliminate human error, reduce processing times, and ensure precise transactions to maintain profitability.
