    Well-suited:
    • In a B2B set up - Post achieving some scale and having outgrown Google Sheets/ Excels. Won't add much value if you are dealing with fewer than 400-500 invoices a year.
    • We haven't explored their B2C subscription management side - but that is one of the key strengths of the platform.

    waalaxy is a good tool for automating activity on linkedin, creating contacts that will then have to be developed directly by you, but it speeds up the initial steps and skims contacts very quickly (if the bot sends 20 requests a day and 15 percent of people accept the link, you already know who to continue conversations with and who to leave alone).The only note is the scattered interface compared to others with a simpler and more direct ux.Maybe it's personal taste, because it continues to get a lot of positive feedback from many users.

    Pros
    Chargebee
    • Reliable: We've had virtually no issues since launch.
    • Care about customers: Chargebee's account managers/support team have always been very helpful/responsive.
    • Feature-rich: Chargebee has a ton of features that help us do what we want and they are consistently adding new features every quarter.

    • Automation: request for connection at random times to simulate human intervention
    • automation: email link request to increase the maximum limit of link requests (before August 2022, linkedin policy changed message policies)
    • automation: email search on linkedin

    Cons
    Chargebee
    • It wasn't allowing us to add a one time purchase without making it an ongoing subscription with only one payment. They may have fixed it very recently but that was a big pain from a reporting perspective (it was including one time purchasers as subscribers)
    • Email automation is not very robust. Difficult to customize triggers by subscription, you have to send the same message to all subscribers for a specific action
    • Wish it had a way to write off and cancel the subscription of customers who haven't updated their cc info. That can be a long painful and very manual process. And if that feature is available somewhere they don't do a good job of making that clear.

    • needs to improve the interface to make it faster to use the platform, especially for those who do not always use all the functions and do not remember them. Navigating through the menus becomes time-consuming
    • choice of profile "warming" type to avoid linkedin ban. Waalaxy seems less careful than other platforms to use automations with caution, at least in the beginning (you can't go from zero to 20 link requests a day because you risk banning. It's not certain but you risk it)

    è una piattaforma solida e aggiornata, ma ha un difetto che non mi piace ed è che personalmente non mi piace l'interfaccia per usarla. Questo è l'unico difetto e penso che sia soggettivo.

    Usability
    Chargebee
    It's very easy to use once you know what you're doing. I found it very straight forward once I got the hang of things and was able to create plans easily for my business. I was also able to just charge my clients right away easily. Refunding was also easy when needed.

    it has a lot of functions, I haven't tried them all, but when I looked for something I found the interface scattered in menus and I didn't immediately find what I was looking for, this can also be frustrating because there are some functions that you rarely use so you forget where the buttons and menu are and so a more straightforward visual approach would be preferable even for those who are not new to the tool

    The major reason to go with chargebee is its costing as compared to its competitors it is much useful and value for money.Also it has many features that is very practical and efficient to use it.I recommend to the people who involves low costing as well as futuristic features.

    Waalaxy works well and has been on the market for quite some time; it is a solid product. For my very personal use judgment, I don't like to waste time looking for functions in menus-I use too many saas to waste time and remember where I find functions.Learning curve and immediate usability are key for me, so I was better off with Closely which has a much better UX.Maybe it's my problem and you will be just as well off as many others, you just have to try both because they have the free version

    Return on Investment
    Chargebee
    • It was a step in the right direction compared to ReCharge
    • It had negative impacts on our revenue before we had our developers put some work into improving its capabilities with our website and software
    • Now, we are seeing some positive results (after some costly updating from our end)

    • 20 requests per day15% links accepted (depends on your message/strategy and industry, not the tool)
    • return on investment is certain if you don't think automation can do it all: you have to work the contacts generated by waalaxy
