Ubersmith, an INAP company and a global
leader in subscription business management software for the cloud and beyond,
today announced a new 4.3 version of its product that includes the ability to
bill for Amazon Web Services (AWS), a range of other billing enhancements and
faster performance. The new version is now available.
"With added billing support for a leading hyperscale public
cloud provider, we now provide automated usage-based billing for AWS and
OnApp-based clouds plus bandwidth, virtualization, power, backup and support,"
said Kurt Daniel, CEO of Ubersmith. "This strengthens our position as a leading
cloud billing, infrastructure and operations software provider with
capabilities for sales quoting, order management, infrastructure management and
help desk ticketing."
"We previously had no automated way to bill our customers
for AWS and are looking forward to taking advantage of this new capability in
the Ubersmith software," said Mark Keymer, chief operating officer, Vivio
Technologies in Walla Walla, Washington, an Ubersmith customer. "So, for our
company this new feature represents the opportunity to expand our services to
customers."
What's New in 4.3
The billing for AWS includes compute, storage, database,
network connectivity and other services. AWS has over 100 services, with some
being available in as many as 19 zones globally, resulting in a large amount of
service-zone combinations. Ubersmith enables its customers to create a service
(or services) based on AWS, add their positive or negative markup if any, and
automatically bill and receive payment for delivering those capabilities.
Multi-cloud vendors, datacenter providers, enterprise IT
departments, managed service providers (MSPs) and other types of organizations
will be most interested in the new offering.
The Ubersmith Client Manager offers complete billing and
customer lifecycle control and now offers usage plan update propagation,
client relationship reassignments, better domain renewals and invoice run
failure notification. Ubersmith's plug-in system has also added a few
enhancements for developers.
Additionally, users will experience greater responsiveness
and faster performance of the application as a result of transitioning to the
PHP 7.1 programming language.
