DigitalRoute’s enterprise business grew 100 percent year on year, making up 44 percent of the company\u2019s total sales. New customers include a newly launched, popular streaming service and a travel booking software provider. DigitalRoute\u2019s Usage Data Platform will now process data from 80 percent of all travel bookings worldwide.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.4.2″ hover_enabled=”0″ max_width=”80%” module_alignment=”center”]<\/p>\n DigitalRoute\u2019s breakthrough year reflects a cross-industry trend, where demand for subscription and usage-based business models grew significantly in 2019.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n According to Zuora\u2019s latest edition of its Subscription Economy Index\u2122, measuring the health and growth of subscription businesses, the subscription economy has grown 350 percent over the last 7.5 years. Companies with usage-based pricing, making up between 1 to 50 percent of their overall revenue, grew by 28 percent year on year. That is 1.5 times higher growth than companies with no usage-based pricing. <\/span><\/p>\n \u201cSince consumers increasingly want to use a service rather than own a product, companies must be able to bill with full transparency and high granularity based on specific usage,\u201d says Andreas Zartmann, CEO at DigitalRoute.<\/span><\/p>\n DigitalRoute\u2019s Usage Data Platform has been supporting the telecom industry\u2019s ability to charge for and launch usage-based services for 20 years. The platform is designed to process millions of transactions per second, regardless of how complex the usage data is or what system it comes from.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cAlready five years ago we saw an emerging trend in enterprises shifting their business model from selling products to selling services,\u201d Zartmann says. \u201cOur technology at an early stage solved the complexity of usage, helping companies like Adobe build tremendous growth as a result of bold decisions to switch to usage-based subscription models. Based on this trend, we decided to double down and bring our 20 years of experience in monetizing usage data in the telecom industry to other enterprises.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n During the last years, DigitalRoute invested heavily in organization and new cloud native technology, in order to change the company\u2019s direction to focus more on enterprises. In 2019, new multinational enterprises became DigitalRoute customers. A new global streaming service that competes head-to-head with Netflix now uses DigitalRoute\u2019s Usage Data Platform. The streaming service has a flexible, usage-based business model that enables customers to pay only for what they use.<\/span><\/p>\n The Usage Data Platform was also implemented in a global travel booking software provider in 2019. Combined with other travel booking software customers, DigitalRoute\u2019s platform will now process the usage data of more than 80 percent of all travel bookings worldwide.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThis year we have seen real proof that the strategic shift we made to our business a few years ago was the right decision,\u201d Zartmann says. \u201cThe growth in our enterprise business clearly stands out. We are proud that market-leading enterprises choose our Usage Data Platform to enable business model innovation. DigitalRoute is on a mission to simplify consumption-based commerce across industries.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n About DigitalRoute<\/strong><\/p>\n DigitalRoute helps global companies, across various industries, capitalize on the growing wave of consumption-based commerce with its Usage Data Platform.
