“Our billing processes that used to take 5 days to complete monthly, are now done on Day 1. This efficiency gain cuts our manual workload by 80%... Without ZoneBilling, we would not have been able to support our customer growth without significant back office effort and a high chance of failure.”
Blair Woodbury
