Aria Systems Adds New Cloud Billing Capabilities, Extends Global Subscription Revenue Services

Aria Systems, Inc., the leading provider of cloud billing and subscription management solutions, today announced the latest release of the Aria (News - Alert) Subscription Billing Platform, which addresses the growing demand for international functionality and advanced security features within the company's industry-leading subscription billing solution.

The latest release of the Aria Subscription Billing Platform includes a variety of new capabilities that make the solution easier to use for companies with customers or operations or outside the U.S., including local language and currency support in screen displays, currency displays, statements and settings. The Platform also includes the integration of new, regional payment gateways, including DIBS, among others.

The Aria Subscription Billing Platform now offers a secure FTP channel. This enables users to safely and efficiently share confidential information, manage remote files and transfer critical data worldwide - across internal networks as well as over the internet.

"The nature of subscription-based businesses means they have no defined geographical boundaries: the world is their customer. This means their recrring revenue and billing solution must also have no boundaries, offering seamless support, 24x7, regardless of language, location or currency," said Mike Morini, president and CEO, Aria Systems. "Aria Systems is committed to enabling the growth and success of our customers worldwide, and we continue to invest aggressively in the Aria Subscription Billing Platform to ensure we can offer the capabilities which are critical for multi-national support of subscription-based businesses."

Earlier this year, Aria Systems announced with CSC (NYSE: CSC) the availability of the CSC CloudBill™ solution for the European market. The CloudBill solution, which is built on the Aria Subscription Billing Platform, is hosted in CSC's (News - Alert) Copenhagen-based Cloud datacenter. The Copenhagen datacenter is the first European datacenter to offer SaaS billing services, and provides customers that have European business operations with local database, reporting and disaster recovery support.

"CSC's consulting, systems integration and cloud technology leadership, combined with Aria Systems' industry-leading software offers our clients a secure, PCI (News - Alert)-compliant subscription billing and revenue management platform," said Steve Sparling, vice president, CSC Technology and Consumer Group. "With our industry-leading CyberSecurity expertise and innovative service delivery using the cloud, CSC is in a unique position to add value to the Aria solution with services, processes and staff offering the security and transparency that customers require."

Additional functionality in the new release of the Aria Subscription Billing Platform includes automated real-time rating of usage, enabling better visibility of end-customer activity as well as revenue assurance. The Platform also includes the Aria BillSoft (News - Alert) Connector, which offers expanded tax integration options for both the BillSoft Telecom and BillSoft SAU solutions.
