LeCayla Technologies Deploys Next-Generation Metering Technology on OpSource Services Bus

PRLog (Press Release) - Sep 24, 2007 -
OpSource™, the SaaS delivery experts, today announced that LeCayla Technologies’ metering and billing solution has become the first independent application accessible via the OpSource Services Bus™. As a result, OpSource’s customers can now incorporate LeCayla’s rich array of on-demand metering and information services into their own Web and software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications.

Gary Ramsay, COO, LeCayla Technologies, said, “We’re pleased to partner with OpSource on this initiative. SaaS is enabling new ways of doing business and OpSource has consistently led the way in providing successful delivery of SaaS applications.”

“LeCayla was developed specifically for on-demand software,” Ramsay added. “We understand that SaaS companies are working to bring their solutions to market and need a billing solution that is fast and simple to integrate. We’ve focused on delivering the benefits of SaaS to SaaS companies themselves. LeCayla is fully self-service with no up-front professional services required.”

The Sage Group is partnering with LeCayla for billing services for SageCRM.com. Brian Halpin, vice president and general manager, The Sage Group, said, “LeCayla is our preferred method for introducing flexible pricing with automated billing. We were able to integrate LeCayla and get up and running within hours.”

Treb Ryan, CEO, OpSource, said, “The OpSource Services Bus is opening the door for the next generation of software-as-a service solutions. It enables companies for whom we deliver on-demand applications to easily integrate other on-demand solutions with their applications. For instance, an accounting provider and a credit rating company could collaborate to offer an integrated service, building value for each company’s end users and driving end-user retention. In turn, end users will be able to access a complete range of integrated services, driving yet more business for our customers.”

“In the case of LeCayla, OpSource customers will be able to monitor service delivery and use LeCayla’s software to accurately bill and remit the appropriate monies to each party – all as part of the OpSource Services Bus,” Ryan added.
