Entitlements with ERP and fulfillment systems

  • Push whatever entitlement information you need into your ERP

  • Drive the creation of entitlements based on ERP processes

  • Take application usage information and consumption data to generate custom invoices

Secure entitlements connected to your financial backend

Entitlements, the record of what customers own, are securely issued and held by Zentitle for your complete product portfolio of software and services, across on-premise, SaaS, and IoT. Entitlement creation and fulfillment can be driven based on your ERP processes, or flowed back in if initiated from elsewhere. If your sales fulfillment of software access is initiated by e-commerce or sales teams within your CRM, the entitlement information you need for your financial operations can be automatically pushed into your ERP. Zentitle accurately tracks entitlement activity and consumption tracking mechanisms, meaning this customer activity audit can be pushed to your ERP to generate custom invoices.

Entitlements with Billing Systems

  • Initial purchase, from CRM or E-commerce connected to Billing, driven by secure customer entitlements

  • Usage and consumption on a pre-or post-paid basis connected to your billing platform

  • Subscriptions, consumption, and hybrid complex billing for on-prem, SaaS, and IoT

Billing with Software and SaaS Entitlement Delivery

Zentitle’s cloud-based licensing platform is designed to deliver, manage, change, and enforce product use entitlements across all platforms, whether on-prem, on server, SaaS, or IoT. If your sales operations workflow stems from your CRM, your sales teams can give ownership or access entitlements to their customers right from within the CRM’s interface. In the background, the order is fulfilled, with Zentitle delivering the entitlements on the fly for immediate access and customer adoption of your product. From a financial perspective, the ERP also continues to link into Zentitle and billing engines to oversee all financial transactions relating to every customer. In a software marketplace that is moving to be dominated by subscription and soon consumption-based billing, this connection is key to enterprise software and hardware companies. Consumption-based billing is not just used in isolation as a sole monetization model; it is also used in conjunction with subscription models, as this is what meets the demands of the market and the customer. Zentitle’s entitlement engine makes all this possible. Constantly gathering consumption data, Zentitle can work hand in hand with your billing and financial systems in order to control and charge for the consumption of your software and its features. This can be done in pre-pay or post-pay fashion, with the entitlement engine adept at handling either. With business customers wanting to purchase in ways that meet their needs in the moment, flexing as their demands change, Zentitle’s entitlement engine makes these technically complex scenarios completely straightforward.
