Directbilling.co.uk - An alternative billing panel.

[directbillin]

Set your eyes on a brand new billing panel that’s being developed – A billing system that won’t ‘tax’ you or your clients, or even limit you on the amount of accounts that can be created within the billing environment and the server environment.

We are working on an alternative to BoxBilling, clientexec or the hosting tool that are long been abandoned by there developers.

Our billing platform streamlines automation of domain renewals, hosting accounts and advanced billing options that help your company succeed.

As time goes by, we will update this page with screenshots and features while working on this project, development started 1st July 2019 – We aim to release in public beta by October 2019.

Hm, for something in development for 17 days you'd expect at least one screenshot no? or at least a better showcase website.
How are you managing to jump through all the technical hoops that any other billing module has in just the span of 3 months? (even if it's for beta, that's a realllly early beta, i'd probably call it pre-alpha by then)

Hi there, thanks for that, we are not looking to 'beat' any competitor at all, we are looking to offer our own feature set. We do not expect to have everything ironed out within our beta, but work is ongoing and we do have screenshots, please join our discord!

directbillin Who're the people working behind this brand? It would be interesting to know, considering such a panel should be developed by a professional team with years of experience in the industry, with knowledge on how to reduce the chances of serious vulnerabilities being introduced, etc.

Such a task should not be undertaken by a few friends looking to make a few bucks, as serious liability is involved here.

a cat would probably be able to make a payment system better than paypal at this point

Ha! Brilliant

We have been in in the hosting industry since 2002-03' Although we are friends - We all have experience and know what is needed for a fully functioning billing panel, with a lot of the con's not being in the leading brands (although we're not going directly compete over feature set, we can definitely make improvements onto the systems that we see fit.) - With release we estimate around 60 features to be included.

I'm specifically referring to the development of this though - it's good that you have a comprehensive understanding of features you need, but if these can't be introduced without introducing serious vulnerabilities that could cause major data breaches, etc, then there's no point going down this road in the first place.

My point is, you wouldn't want to be responsible for hundreds of data breaches, because of some lousy development decisions.

We have additional eyes on our script with vulnerabilities and we have already hired an outsourced company to review the code before we push this out to beta - or pre-alpha.

Harry we plan to be as transparent as we can on the first few releases of our software and will release reports publicly to let others know of other issues, while we are testing the software.

Small snippets of information can be found here;

I can understand the concern and we will take any additional feedback on board before we release the system, fully!

Thanks for this though! It's highly appreciative

We have released one small snapshot photo today with our new designed clientarea.

Please take a look and we will make improvements as we need!

The client area has now been coded, although this is not the final version and plenty of modifications will come to it please take a look;

We will get this fixed, thanks! Sorry for the late reply!

We have decided to scale back on some features that we release initially to just 30, this is to ensure we can get the base correct before we have an RC.

We will have everything that you will need to have a functioning business (if you was to use this in beta) with some very basic reporting and stats on the actual business.
