Challenge: Manual Work​, Leaking Revenue, Lack of Transparency

Heeros had several invoicing sources and was missing an integrated solution for their customer portfolio as a whole. They did not have a common tool for pricing and contract management either. The result was a laborsome, error-prone process that caused a substantial amount of revenue leakage. ​

Heeros was looking for a system that would enable revenue growth (through pricing and billing automation) and reduce the ever-increasing manual effort. Plus, they needed the invoicing process to include usage reports for customers.

Their final worry was process and data management issues that was hurting their billing architecture (i.e. CRM and ERP + billing systems).
