Kansys is pleased to announce a deal with Ericsson to acquire their Enterprise and Cloud Billing (“ECB”) business. ECB is a charging solution primarily developed to monetize any product or service, including IoT services. Terms of the deal will not be disclosed, and closing is anticipated in October 2019.
Kansys, a specialized BSS Integrator with over 22 years of billing experience on multiple billing platforms, has an extensive history of working with the ECB software dating back to 2004. That history includes working closely with Ericsson on many of the ECB customer engagements spanning the entire software deployment and development lifecycle.
ECB customers represent numerous industries and are reflective of ECB’s ability to monetize any product or service. “ECB continues to provide unique architectural advantages that translate into the most flexible and nimble enterprise billing software in the world,” said Kansys CTO Arthur Koenig. “This is especially true for those customers with complex monetization requirements.”
“One of the reasons for our success has been anticipating the needs of our customers while working with them on how they want to grow their business,” said Kansys President Joe Simmons. “Combining that approach, with such a comprehensive and flexible billing platform, will translate into increased options for our customers.”
The ECB suite is the world leader for customers with complex, multi-party B2B billing requirements and does so without having to reengineer data sources or formats. The software is designed to provide robust monetization capabilities while blending into the customer’s existing software and infrastructure.
“Kansys has consistently provided exceptional professional services, development and ongoing support to Ericsson’s ECB customers,” said Dave Arbach, Ericsson VP of IOT Monetization at Ericsson. “The ECB divestment does not impact Ericsson’s existing Digital BSS portfolio to provide leading 5G and IoT monetization capabilities that align with our strategic targets.”
