Hello everyone,

I am a owner in a decently sucessful webhosting company. We have got to the point that our client base is becoming unmanageable under the present conditions. We are looking into a new billing system specifically meant for Webhosting companies, and I was wondering if any of you may of heard of one?

I'm looking for either an entirely company managed billing system, or even a outsourced billing system. Either works for us.


Thank you,

Rory

Thanks. Although, we've employed programmers to create a billing system for us.

Actually, it's almost done, and looks quite nice to.

However, I forwarded off the URL, since it does look like a very nice billing system, and it deserves to be considered.

Optigold ISP.

We use Digital Point's Optigold ISP...

http://www.optigold.com

Although it wasn't designed with hosting as it's primary role it does very well for us...

They have a free 100 user trial.

Hi Carlos,

Do you know if BillAdmin has gone out of business? I sent them an e-mail last week and got no answer, and today when I went to the site to jot off a follow-up e-mail the site is gone (I'm getting a 403 Forbidden error message).

I probably wouldn't be interested in using their remote hosted billing solution, but I had an inquiry about licensing their software for us to provide our Resellers, so I was hoping to get in touch, but now it looks like they might be gone. Too bad - they looked like they had a real winning system.

Do you have any info?

Thanks,

Jason

Hi Jason

No they haven;t gone out of business, and I did notice the site was down, and send them an email, not sure why they haven't reply to you yet

That was backed by Site5, so when you say 'they' you mean them. To my knowledge they aren't floating sideways at the top of the tank just yet

Contact Site5 Matt for more info.

It should be noted that Site5 is far from going out of business. In fact, it's just the opposite. Over the past month or two, we have nearly doubled our customer base and have some exciting new plans for the future.

However due to the the increase in customer service needed to manage these new customers, we have opted to discontinue selling BillAdmin as a service for the time being (we were getting TONS of inquiries and it was taking up nearly all of my time just to manage them). Current customers will, of course, be able to remain on the system. However no new orders will be accepted until further notice.

It should be noted that I have been away on vacation for a while, thus the lack of response from myself.

Thanks for everyone's concern, and have a wonderful day.

All the best,
Matt
