The migration, which occurred in August 2024 over a single weekend, transitioned ODIDO to the cloud-native Ericsson Billing platform hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS), enabling the roll-out of innovative 5G services, including the Netherlands' first 5G fixed-wireless access (FWA) service, Klik&Klaar.

Søren Abildgaard, CEO of ODIDO said: “We’ve just done a billing migration with zero faults. It’s like performing open-heart surgery on a marathon runner, while they’re still running.”
The migration, executed by Wipro as the end-to-end system integrator, reduces ODIDO’s technical debt and improves operational efficiency, paving the way for future innovation and scalability.
Mats Karlsson, head of business and operations support systems at Ericsson said: “This transformation ensures ODIDO can deliver superior service experiences at scale, meeting the growing demands of 5G.”
The new billing platform allows ODIDO to streamline its operations, automate billing processes, and position itself for future growth by capitalising on the expanding demand for 5G services in the Dutch market.
