ForeFlight vs. Maxio

This tool is perfect for any pilot, whether he or she is an ATP or a student. This is an all-in-one tool for preflight operations through post-flight operations. The subscriptions might be pricey for some people, but the resources it provides, as well as its functions and capabilities, make the paid service very valuable.

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.

• Managing deferred revenue.
• Contract management is flexible and allows us to see data that we never had before.
• Billing is painless and is now done within a couple hours. Previously it would take at least 1-2 days.
• Business Metrics and Reporting.

• It would be helpful to be able to import Cloud Ahoy data onto ForeFlight to see specific instrument data during specific phases of flight.
• When typing waypoints into the Flight Plan section, it would be helpful if pressing backspace simply erases the last character, rather than every character in the waypoint typed thus far.
• It would be helpful to be able to place flight breadcrumbs on the map, even after the breadcrumbs time has expired, for review in the future.
• It would be helpful to include a sum total of ground instruction time in the Experience Report section of the logbook.

• 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

They are a crucial piece of what we do. We hope to have them as a vendor for a long time to come.

First, it is very easy to learn how to use ForeFlight through active use of the products. Additionally, its website has helpful videos and guides that provide tutorials on how to use its resources. ForeFlight also produces helpful legends that helps pilots to interpret symbology correctly. Finally, it is very easy to share documents, endorsements, etc., among ForeFlight users.

There is definitely a learning curve - to me the UI for reporting was not intuitive and often required me to ask our RevOps to pull data for me

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.

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

• The operational costs of ForeFlight are likely to be minimal, especially when compared to the efficiency gains (e.g., flight preparation, etc.) and potential boosts to safety (e.g., weight and balance calculations, information that can be used for aeronautical decision-making scenarios, etc.).

• 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.
