    It's good for anyone who has customers, in my opinion. Whether you keep track of subscriptions, or just have one-time only invoices, it's just a wonderful way to keep track of everything in an organized way.

    I would avoid [it] for any subscription management. Personally, we had a torrid experience with the product and company. The platform is dated and feels like an afterthought or a sideline project for Pape Ventures. They certainly don’t invest any time in developing the product and it feels like there is a real ‘Can’t do’ attitude from the management.

    Cons
    ChargeOver
    • They need the site to be mobile friendly or to develop an app. If I don't use Chrome and remember to view as desktop site, it loses much of its functionality.

    I think ChargeOver is more flexible than any of its competitors. Our business involves both subscription and one-time billing, and most billing systems excel at only one or the other. ChargeOver is also at a great price point with its billing based on a number of customers. We are also able to realize low-cost ACH payments through their gateway integrations when their competitors only provide access to high-cost providers.

    Return on Investment
    ChargeOver
    • Our billing is now much more linear, much more organized, and much easier to locate information now that we've been using them.
    • People in other departments can easily navigate the system without training and find what they're looking for.
