Maxio vs. Quadient Accounts Receivable

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.

Amazing tool for workflow automation, customer self service, housing customer information in one repository, risk assessment for customers. Less helpful for cash forecasting and a bit more rigid for workflow set ups if the customer has multiple accounting pathways to send notifications to.

• 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.

Incentivized

• User friendly dashboard
• Ease of use setting up workflows
• Easy to follow aging report to reconcile
• DSO on the front home page

Incentivized

• 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

Incentivized

• Workflows are not set up to easily choose different billing contact choices (invoice, inquiry statements to different aliases)
• Cash forecasting graphics are unhelpful and can be refined
• DSO calculation is set at 365 day average only - there are no options to view DSO averages by collector or 90 days averages

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

Amazing tool which we love. Definitely something to consider if you have a high volume of customers or your team runs lean as it does a lot of the touches without human support

Super easy set up - does not need Admin support to create workflows or templates - anyone with a sense of receivables processes can do it

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

Quadient stacked up pretty well. Pricing was a bit higher than what we wanted to spend; however, based on the value we are receiving in a streamlined product, we pulled the trigger on it. Dunning was a bit more limited and manual process in the collections process so we opted for Quadient.

Incentivized

• 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.

Incentivized

• Decrease in our DSO which was relatively high before
• Ease of use by our customers to gather statements or invoices
• Ease of use platform for all employees
