Solution
CPO platform for charge point operators
CPO platform infrastructure for charger connectivity, sessions, and roaming. Use ev-cloud when a full CPMS replacement is too risky or too slow.
Best for
Operators who need production-grade OCPP connectivity, OCPI roaming readiness, and multi-backend flexibility without forcing every charger onto a new CPMS on day one.
Audience
Charge Point Operators, network owners, and platform teams evaluating CPO management software.
Why this solution exists
Buyers searching for “CPO platform,” “CPO management software,” or “CPO software” are usually choosing between a full charge-point management system and a gateway/control layer. This page clarifies what a modern CPO stack must own—and when ev-cloud is the right layer instead of a rip-and-replace CPMS.
- “CPO platform” RFPs mix charger connectivity, roaming, billing, and CRM into one vague product box.
- Full CPMS replacements create multi-year migration risk while the fleet still needs to grow.
- Existing CPO software cannot cleanly support mixed OCPP versions or multi-backend routing.
- Roaming and partner launches stall because OCPI is bolted on rather than operated as infrastructure.
- Vendor lock-in makes data export, parallel monitoring, and staged cutover nearly impossible.
What the team gets
- Separate charger-facing infrastructure (OCPP/OCPI) from business systems (billing, CRM, analytics).
- Run a CPO platform strategy that allows phased migration instead of big-bang cutover.
- Keep OCPP 1.6 and 2.0.1 fleets under one gateway control plane.
- Add OCPI roaming operations without rewriting the core CPO product stack.
- Own charger event data while routing sessions to the systems that need them.
