CloudBlue vs. Subscription Genius (discontinued)

CloudBlue is a fairly scalable platform that enables instant use of new products. Integrations with third-party products make the go-to-market process seamless and simple.

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.

• Easy to integrate new products.
• Subscription management.
• The design is clean and intuitive.

Incentivized

• Initial sales was strong.
• Their website looks the part.
• You feel like they are genuine.

• The CloudBlue platform is quite scalable, and the ecosystem of included ISVs allows us to add any new product to the market immediately and simply.

Incentivized

• Failed to deliver on promises.
• Auto renew function never worked from the start.
• Facebook Pixel Tracking never worked.
• Support failed to return calls.
• Support failed to return emails.
• Generally ignored.
• It ended up costing us double. I had to waste time chasing them to deliver on a product that never worked.
• Feels like a side project or afterthought.
• No new development time.
• Feels like it has been mothballed.

• In my very personal review, I can mention that this instrument does not have negative points that harm us; rather, we are quite practical with this product.

Incentivized

• We actually lost money and further time
• We ended up reverting back to manual subscription management
