Introduction

The public cloud has been one of the fastest-growing markets for many of the world’s largest technology companies. Amazon Web Services (AWS) was the first-mover with Microsoft and Google following a couple of years after. There has been an on-going cloud race between these three public cloud giants ever since. As a result of this fierce competition, prices have been dropping steadily and new features and services are continuously being introduced.

Integrate

CloudBilling has standard integrations for all major public cloud providers. Regardless of whether you offer multi-cloud, hybrid cloud or focus on a single provider, we automate your billing process. Our integrations with AWS, Microsoft CSP (Azure & O365), Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and VMware make sure all your customers’ usage gets invoiced in a timely manner.


Reduce revenue leakage

When billing cloud usage, you run a significant risk of billing errors or missing resource usage that should be invoiced. All of this missed usage adds up to incalculable revenue leakage. It goes without saying that revenue leakage is a serious issue. CloudBilling automates the usage retrieval and billing process, so no revenue is missed.
