OneBill Critical Capabilities Report

The Performance Standard

Agility Meets Enterprise Scale

Evaluating a billing platform requires looking beyond basic subscriptions. The true test of a monetization engine lies in its ability to handle immense volume without manual intervention.

1 Million
Events in ~10 Mins

High-Volume Usage Rating & Mediation

OneBill can count and aggregate metered usage events, rating them with tiered, incremental volume discounts or formulas. Its mediation engine supports field mapping, data cleansing, conversions and calculations, with an intuitive UI for mapping incoming usage events. Events can be imported via API, FTP or on demand in the UI.

In a Gartner demo, OneBill rated 1 million usage events in about 10 minutes.

10,000
Invoices in ~7 Mins

Automated Financial Operations

Eliminate the end-of-month billing bottleneck. Invoices are generated on flexible, customer-specific schedules. Business account hierarchies can be defined, and invoices aggregated for separate contracts or multiple accounts in a hierarchy.

In a Gartner demo, OneBill generated 10,000 invoices via API in about 7 minutes.

Stand-Alone
RevRec Application

Financial & Regulatory Compliance

Ensure total compliance with IFRS 15 and ASC 606 standards without relying on heavily customized ERP workarounds. OneBill offers a stand-alone revenue recognition application.

This features robust support for deferred revenue, performance obligations, multielement arrangements, basic stand-alone selling price calculation and real-time contract revenue position.
