For many years, hosting has been a fast-growing area in the internet industry. Using the Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) model, providers offer hardware, software, storage and other infrastructure components. Given the large number of competitors, the market is likely to be saturated. And this increases the competition for offers and customers.
In order to keep customer churn to a minimum, providers must constantly develop and optimize their business model — with a strong focus on the market and customer needs. The only way to achieve this is to automate time-consuming processes such as invoice processing.

Office and facility management is a specialized market within the area of property technologies, which has developed into a strong, independent industry over the past decades.
The industry’s portfolio now includes not only facility maintenance, property cleaning and asset management, but also a wide range of other services around buildings, homes and offices. They include, for example, security services, coffee deliveries or indoor plant rentals. Managing intelligent facility technologies will soon become a key area of this industry.
The industry is progressively digitizing its extensive range of services. To avoid media disruptions right from the start, the logical conclusion is to introduce a flexible software for automating billing and invoicing processes. Particularly in smart facility technologies, it is worthwhile to directly connect the data recording systems with the specialized billing solutions. This is the way for a business to develop and optimize its core competencies.

Now the challenge for companies is to exploit the IoT’s potential for business growth. Key to success is the analysis of the immense amounts of data (“big data”). It becomes the basis for developing business models and therefore a tangible added value for companies.
Having a big data strategy in place is the foundation for the efficient use and monetization of data such as:
Complex software solutions support companies in analyzing collected data and invoicing it directly. Taking advantage of M2M communication in increasingly dense networks of devices, they allow to automate and accelerate IoT-based business processes.

Digitization has dominated the business processes in the media and publishing industry for many years. New business areas are emerging, the competition between traditional media companies and digital-only publishers is steadily increasing, and services are converging. Media companies no longer just offer content and advertising space, but also their own technology solutions.
Software systems like JustOn Billing & Invoice Management let media providers efficiently bill both aspects of their business in a unified system: ad management for the advertising industry and subscriptions for their readers and users. Furthermore, companies can analyze and modify their billing, invoicing and revenue management processes.
