Backers included Kima Ventures, Cap Innov’Est, a regional venture fund based in Eastern France, Awys, the personal fund of Eric Durand-Gasselin, regional business angel network Bourgogne Angels and other business angels based in France and the United States.

Founded in March 2015 by CEO David Meyer, Opencell operates an open source carrier-grade convergent billing system covering the entire consume-to-cash process including mediation, rating, charging, invoicing and AR management. It is available for on premise installation and for cloud deployment on the Microsoft Azure marketplace.
