What’s there to offer on top of a world-class billing system?
Kiran Mohan, Marketing, Synthesis Systems
So, I was chatting with one of my friends from a large retail store last weekend and was talking about how passionate we are about the subscription industry and how good we are with the billing system. Then she said this, “Billing systems are already on the top of their game. What’s there to offer on top of a world-class billing system to make it even better?”
My short answer was
“A good billing system doesn’t mean a grand ROI”
She disagreed and gave a few examples of billion-dollar companies having their billing systems and being pretty successful globally.
My next short answer was,
“It’s not the tool, it’s the experts that counts”
She frowned. I realized my soft arrogance and corrected it.
“It’s not just the tool. It’s the tool + experts that can help you realize maximum value”
Then came my long answer on what makes a billing system implementation really successful and sustainable over a period of time. Not the best practices, but what can a company like Synthesis can offer (in fact delivered) to small and large organizations to add to the power of the billing systems and help realize the full potential of a billing system.

I can add a few more, but you get the picture.
Yeah, I warned that it was a long answer. Full disclosure, I wasn’t this articulate in my first take, but I can’t be clumsy when posting a blog. Can I?
Buying a camera doesn’t make you a photographer. You need the skill. An excellent billing system doesn’t get you all the benefits overnight, you need the skills or an expert to make it happen.
In fact, the bond will get even more tighter with new AI/ML features being released.
Agree? It takes two.
