Sonar Unveils the Future of ISP Billing and Management Software

DEBOLT, AL - Sonar Software unveiled Version 2, a ground-up rebuild of its ISP billing and management software, at WISPAPALOOZA 2019 in a sold-out event in Las Vegas, NV. Version 2 is a "big re-imagining"; a re-building from the ground up.

"We're no longer just a software company. We're now partnering with all our customers in all their success…helping them with marketing and…are way more engaged", said Simon Westlake, founder of Sonar Software. Westlake added, "We started over and threw out all the old code".

Sonar Software has always helped wireless internet service providers (WISPs) with billing, ticketing, provisioning, and other operational functions. The result has been deep engagement, and based on this deep engagement, Sonar has regularly encountered other needs. In addition to a greatly improved user interface (UI), Sonar is adding marketing features to help their customers grow.

Other new features in development include a mobile app for installers to make field installation easier. They can take pictures, deploy field inventory, and get assistance with site surveys, cutting friction on every truck roll. Sonar also built a new customizable dashboard so that everyone in your company can see what they need to see, when they need to see it.

"WISPAPALOOZA has been fantastic because it has allowed us as a team to see and talk with customers and each other in real time, all concentrated in one place", said Westlake. In addition to WISPs, Sonar provides solutions for multiple dwelling units (MDUs), fiber, and cable and voice providers.

Simon, what is the biggest foundational change?

Good question. I don't think there is just one. The industry was made up of smaller players. We might deal with an owner, an owner with his wife, an owner with his son. That was cool but changes in the industry have made it more 'grown up'. Microsoft and Google are getting involved in this space, stepping in. WISPs are growing, getting way bigger, and seeing way more money coming into this industry. People are deploying fiber, cable. LTE is becoming this big thing for fixed providers that wasn't even a thought back then.
