Tekton enters UK
FOLLOWING A BETA launch earlier this year a new
entrant to the UK comms billing market aims to
‘create upheaval’ among established channel
billers as it seeks to ‘set a new standard’ in IT and
comms billing services.
Tekton’s ZOEY billing platform offi cially
launches this month as a legacy-free carrier
grade alternative, incorporating intelligence
and integration capabilities that its developers
say are important differentiators in the market.
Powered by Terry McKeever (pictured), Tekton
have overlaid the network level architecture
from the current Zygo Enterprise Billing System
and invested millions to exclusively develop an
intuitive reseller-based platform.
“Our origins were born out of the fundamental
need to modernise billing by pioneering carrier
grade technology and building intelligence
into a channel focused engine,” stated Tekton
Managing Director, Terry McKeever. “We are
brand new, we don’t have any legacy restrictions
and our features are built for a modern resale
environment, so seamless integration with other
apps has been a priority.”
“The platform offers channel resellers fl exible
billing that facilitate complex tariffi ng and
bundling, in addition to a fully self-servicing
portal,” added McKeever. “Our aim is to contribute
to an industry-wide improvement in the billing
of telecommunications, while supporting clients
through complicated integration and migration
solutions.”
JOLA ANNOUNCES 500GB DATA-ONLY SIM
JOLA HAS LAUNCHED a 500GB Vodafone dataonly
SIM to the channel, with the ability to add an
additional 100GB data bolt-on. The new tariff is now
available on Jola’s Mobile Manager platform for
partners to order.
Until now the largest data packages on Vodafone
have been 200GB packages with a 100GB bolt-on.
This was not enough for many Jola partners with
customers using 4G in remote locations, for pop-up
sites and pre-Ethernet solutions.
Lee Broxson, Jola’s Sales Director commented,
“The business market is demanding more and more
data and this is attractive to Jola partners because
of the increased revenue per order. These SIMs are
very competitively priced compared to equivalent
products from the mobile network operators and
this gives resellers an opportunity to make a good
recurring margin.”
