Microsoft Platform Helps ISVs Develop BSSaaS Solutions

Billing systems are remarkably complicated, with customers demanding options for subscription, real-time, prepaid, and third-party services and applications. The complexity has increased further with the rapid adoption of mobile and IP-based services (such as VoIP) and with the use of greater numbers of devices.
