Dell + Exivity: Universal Metering and Billing for Hybrid Cloud
Dell Universal Metering and Billing (UMB), powered by Exivity, is a metering and billing solution for on-premises, hybrid, multi-cloud and public cloud environments. Dell is a Transformation Partner.
Dell Universal Metering and Billing (UMB), powered by Exivity, provides a flexible metering and billing solution for organizations managing consumption across on-premises, hybrid cloud, multi-cloud, public cloud and edge environments.
UMB collects and processes metering data from virtually any IT asset, helping organizations translate infrastructure and service consumption into accurate financial insights. This enables enterprises and service providers to support consumption-based and as-a-service business models while maintaining visibility into how technology resources are being used and billed.
Designed for complex, multi-tenant environments, Dell UMB provides granular access controls and enables organizations to allocate usage and costs across customers, departments, services and business units. Its data-source-agnostic approach makes it possible to consolidate metering information from heterogeneous infrastructure into a unified financial model.
Dell UMB also integrates with existing operational platforms and ERP/CRM back-end systems, connecting technology consumption with established financial and business processes.
