Maxio vs. XPAY

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.

Xpay is perfect for a centralized location for all payments coming in. It also handles the security and ease to be incorporated by our IT team into the online portal. A vast array of different payment methods ensure all possible options are covered. You can then track what has been paid and now and send reminders.

• 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

• could be more incorporable into accountancy software
• easier OFX exportation

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

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

Xpay could do with some more personalization features but is more cost effective. For example ability to add photos or videos to requests. Payment can be taken via ascend but accepts less payment types and is not as secure hence the replacement with Xpay. Xpay is a simplified version and easy to use and scale.

• 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.

• Saves a tone of time
• Extra cost could be cheaper
• Possibly cuts time for payments as people can pay however they like
