Why Choose b-things?

The Internet of Things is upon us and the Internet of Everything is just around the corner. The drive to integrate multiple products and services means a requirement for new business models for those new opportunities. b-things have created a leading-edge billing, charging and rating platform (OCS) combined with a PCRF to support the enormous volumes of anticipated devices whilst delivering improved performance and flexibility to match the market needs. Our cloud-based solutions adapt to match the customer's services that need charging and not the other way around. This is all done whilst lowering the total cost of ownership. Built with our background in MNO, MVNEs and MVNO it is a highly flexible, cost effective replacement for legacy systems as well as greenfield sites. The OCS and PCRF can also be used as individual modules alongside the invoicing, CRM, connectivity management and ticketing system. This ensures you only pay for what you need.

Due to the difficulties experienced in monetising IoT applications, 60% fail at the proof of concept. Of those that are produced a mere 30% generate any revenue. Powerful and significant IoT ideas are not been realised and a break sits around innovations and commercial opportunities. b-things understands the road to IoT revenue, like the technology itself, breaks typical norms. IoT is highly scalable but revenue opportunities often present themselves through testing, the outcome of which may require major re-engineering of rating, charging and billing solutions. Whether it be new tariffs, a variation of core propositions or the need to quickly differentiate against a competitor, agility and low-cost adaptability is the key to success.

b-things offers a new and unique solution to the core needs of the IoT universe. We’re real-time, so completely accurate. We can plug into any legacy system and have adaptable APIs north and south to suite a vast range of variations.

So when revenue opportunities present themselves, applications on our platform can instantly respond. Build new tariffs in minutes. Alter single aspects of rating, charging and billing and execute it over multiple brands and across millions of devices.

The reason why b-things is different, is that we enable low cost innovation which is the core of the new wave of global IoT growth.
