Abstract

This report pinpoints what sectors of the market look most fruitful and which vendors players are making a difference.

The report puts several telecom industry trends into focus, finding more a few good reasons to believe that billing's on the rebound:

• Stocking the Data Services Candy Store -The explosion of dataservices in mobile markets is prompting telecoms to buy billing systems for their revenue-generating direct marketing skills, not just for their accounting dexterityThe report shows how certain vendors are leveraging merchandising and contextual advertising techniques toboost the bottom lines of their clients
• The Convergence of Postpaid and PrepaidThese used to be very different markets, but the growing use of "dual use" phones and the advantages of pricing from a single consolidated benefits are causing them to mergeDittberner's uses examples such as the Telkomsel case in Indonesia to show how telecoms are tackling the organizational and vendor-management problems that convergence brings
• Network Technology Uncertainty -Network equipment vendor mergers such as Nokia/Siemens and Alcatel/Lucent are rocking the telecom world, but what's the significance of these mega-mergers on billing? And how quickly will IMS, IP, and other next-gen technologies take hold? The report chimes in on these issues as it shows how one biller is pitching a rather interesting "network-future-proof" solution
• The Rise of Virtual Network OperatorsRobust billing andrealtime charging is a critical need for emerging MVNOs such as Mobile ESPN, Helio, and Disney MobileThe Report shows what kinds ofbilling solutions MVNOs are looking for, the prospects for growth of thevirtual operator market, and which kinds of billers should pursue it
• Billing as a Strategic Platform -A number of strategic issues surround the choice of a billing platformFor instance, how does a telecom make progress towards system consolidation, SOA, unified product catalogs, and integration with CRM? And is it best to buy a custom or product solution? Should a hosted service bureau be in your future? The report discusses the pros and cons of these critical questions

Dittberner's study not only sorts through the complex web of billing trends and players, but the intelligence can also help you avoid making bad decisions: investing in the wrong kind of billing solution, for example -or if you're a vendor -entering a market segment that's either too competitive or too specialized to attract sufficient customers.

The Report will help you discover:

• What are the most important market priorities?
• Which success strategies of other operators can you adopt at your own telecom organization?
• Which vendors have industry market share and are leading in specific niches?
• Which Billing/Charging players should you partner with?
• What emerging trends can your company capitalize on?
