Following the deployment of the Cerillion solution for Columbus’ retail operations in Curacao, Grenada, Jamaica, Trinidad and Barbados, the deployment in El Salvador marks the first step in an expanded partnership, with Columbus adopting Cerillion as its preferred billing platform.

“The latest deployments for Columbus in Barbados and El Salvador, reaffirm our selection of Cerillion to improve our business agility and transform our billing and customer management capabilities” says André Foster, Chief Information Officer for Columbus. “By building our own core team we are also now able to quickly rollout the Cerillion corporate solution to our new sites as we continue to expand our operations throughout the region.”

“From our first project with Columbus in Curacao three years ago, to the most recent go-live in El Salvador, I am delighted at how our relationship has grown into a strategic partnership.” commented Louis Hall, CEO, Cerillion Technologies. “Columbus is an ambitious and exciting company to work with and we look forward to further success together in the coming years.”
