the leading billing & OSS vendors in the industry, Bandwidth.com
quickly identified Highdeal Transactive® as the ideal
solution for its business needs.
Recently

Highdeal's capabilities and product architecture, we quickly
realized that we would greatly benefit from a best-of-breed
approach, allowing us to leverage other best-in-class solutions,
such as Salesforce.com for customer relationship management
(CRM) and salesforce automation (SFA). Highdeal Transactive®
meets all of our short-term and long-term business needs while
ensuring accurate and timely invoices and easily integrates into our existing infrastructure."
While
end-to-end solutions address baseline requirements, a best-of-breed
billing solution is a necessity for market leaders with multiple
business models and innovative service offerings. "Our choice
of Highdeal has proven to be a real success," said Henry Kaestner,
CEO of Bandwidth.com. "We required a robust business infrastructure
to meet the needs of our customers and our business partners.

of Highdeal customers," said Camilla Dahlen, President, Highdeal
