OpenBRM
OpenBRM is an open-source billing and subscription management platform for telecom operators, ISPs, MVNOs, SaaS businesses, and enterprises. It combines recurring subscriptions, one-off charges, prepaid balances, and rated usage on customer-cycle invoices sent by email or PDF. Subscription operations cover plan changes, upgrades, downgrades, cancellation, and activation, with provisioning hooks; inventory tracks SIMs, MSISDNs, modems, and IP pools. An ecommerce storefront supports subscription sales with recurring billing and payment processing. OpenBRM incorporates the OpenRate rating engine, which the site says handles around 1,000 CDRs per second and accepts delimited, fixed-length, binary, TAP, and ASN.1 formats. Its CRM supports quotes, service tickets, bulk SMS and email notifications, and customer reminders. GUI functions are available through SOAP and REST APIs. The self-hosted package, including the rating engine and ecommerce component, has no licence fee. Saralam Technologies develops and supports OpenBRM and offers implementation, integration, and custom development services.
