Apphud
You might find Apphud as one of the best solutions if you want quick implementation. Apphud is well documented and anyone with a little technical background in app development could integrate it with your existing app or solution. If you want a lightweight, sleek, and best design flow, you should see some demos first, as you might wanna try something better.

Maxio (SaaSOptics + Chargify)
In my opinion, Maxio is well suited for a large company with simple products/billing scenarios and 10s of thousands of dollars available to waste on implementation, learning curve, and mistakes. For any other company, I do not advise purchasing Maxio.

Cons
Apphud
  • It would be great if they could add some more payment options or payment gateways.
  • They could work on a little improvement in the UI/UX, however, that is not a big issue.
  • They could add some features for better A/B testing.

Maxio (SaaSOptics + Chargify)
  • Options for Cash-based businesses. While it's not GAAP compliant and most users are accrual, many SaaS start ups are still small and operating on a cash basis.
  • Commissions Module since SO already has all our data intergrations
  • So many different features and data entry points that manual data entry errors are common

Maxio (SaaSOptics + Chargify)
They are willing to help with most challenges and are pretty easy to get ahold of by phone. They are limited in their reach, when it comes to bulk cancellations, along with some other bulk edits. It is no fault to them, Chargify is just a system that hasn’t been upgraded much over the years.

Maxio (SaaSOptics + Chargify)
I inherited SaaSOptics from several predecessors that worked on it before me. I believe they used Chargebee or Chargify before SaaSOptics, but I haven't used them. I pray that the market comes up with a better product for subscription revenue management, SaaS metric reporting, and financial projections. Unfortunately, I don't have the time or the team to be able to successfully complete the transition to new software at this time, so I feel like I'm stuck with SaaSOptics at this point

Return on Investment

  • Its precise data analytics and reporting, allow us to make better decisions.
  • After using Apphud, we also got quite positive feedback from the end-users.

Maxio (SaaSOptics + Chargify)
  • Limitations in Chargify's invoicing capability has resulted in our finance team having to manually send invoices from our accounting system. This has resulted in 10-15 hours a week of resource wasted on something that Chargify should automatically do. If this isn't addressed, then the wasted time will increase as we scale.
