Digital River
Well suited if you are wanting to implement a solution with minimal staff or resources to support a large project such as E-Commerce software delivery.

Metanga is easy for automating recurring billing and it has quite a nice trusted API platform but, one time payments require workarounds. Metanaga is well suited for customizing subscriptions and payments.

Cons
Digital River
  • Their flexibility and customizability are lacking. Changes to our cart or store require a lot of lead time discussions and development time.
  • They have many strange UI implementations for things. One search bar is a wildcard match, while another is a string match. One setting might break your product, or be editable once, but you cannot change it after that one time.

  • Pricing model could be more competitive with similar services.
  • If we wanted to use one time payment, it required lot of hassle and workaround.

It has a clean and simple interface. [There are] automatic notifications for failed transactions. The easy integration with Intacct, Netsuite, QuickBooks, SOFTRAX and other financial systems to extend functionality made us choose Metanga over Zuora.
