History
Louis Hall originally founded the company in 1999 following the Management Buyout of the in-house Customer Care and Billing product division of Logica.[1]
In 2000, the company partnered up with Isle of Man based Manx Telecom, billing for the world's first commercial UMTS services.[2] This partnership developed further in 2005, with the implementation of its mediation solution in support of Manx Telecom’s new High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) network.[3][4] A year later they also helped Manx Telecom become the first combined fixed and mobile telecommunications company in the world to gain BABT approval for its billing accuracy.[5] And in 2013, the partnership with Manx Telecom was extended again with Cerillion selected as their provider for an online charging system.[6]
In 2006, Cerillion was named one of Britain’ fastest-growing private technology companies in the Sunday Times Microsoft Tech Track 100.[7] In 2007, the company announced that it would be opening a Global Solutions Centre in India.[8] Following their expansion into India, the company also announced they had secured their first contract for Econet Wireless Kenya (now known as Essar Telecom Kenya).[9] During 2008, Cerillion also launched Cerillion Express,[10] and secured a major deal with BTC Bahamas.[11]
2009 saw the launch of Cerillion’s Total Convergence Architecture (TCA) based on the TM Forum’s Application Framework.[12] The two following years saw the company secure a strategic partnership with Nokia Siemens Networks, with the launch of NSN’s Compact UCB solution.[13]
During 2010, the company was awarded a new multi-site cable billing contract with Columbus Communications, followed by major contracts with both M2 Telecommunications and Truphone in 2012.[14][15][16]
In 2013, Cerillion introduced a new Software as a Service (SaaS) billing application, Cerillion Skyline, and launched its Cloud Partner Programme.[17]
On the 18th March, 2016, Cerillion Technologies became a public company by listing on the AIM market.[18]
