Recurly vs. servicePath™ CPQ+

Recurly is great for tracking transactions and reviewing payment method declines. The platform is extremely helpful when dealing with scenarios where someone believes they have been fraudulently charged for the product. Recurly allows for transaction filtering, which is very helpful when trying to find possibly fraudulent charges very easy. If expecting precise, detailed information about a card decline, Recurly would not be very helpful.

Very well suited to technology and technology service provider businesses. Very much best in its class for those focused on more than just vendor product resale.

• It handles 1:1 and 1:many accounts to subscription set up.
• It has a good billing customization option (cadence, pricing, etc.)
• Can easily set up a customer account and invoice - billing link can be generated so no need to take credit card info over chat, phone, or email.
• Great and responsive customer support.
• Supports multi-language.

Incentivized

• Complex configured products and guided selling.
• Ease of use and setup.
• Simplification of the complex.
• Integrations that enable technology companies to sell effectively.

• I really can't think of any shortcomings on Recurly because they have tried to cover all bases well. However, I believe that pricing could be little competitive because Recurly can become quite expensive when you have acquired a good number of subscribers. So apart from price, there are no shortcomings I can think of on product side.

Incentivized

• Seamless e-signature for order processing and records closure.
• Support for evergreen contracts.
• Offer for SME businesses.

I believe we would continue to use Recurly because they have shown that they are continually improving their software, and they listen to their customers

Quality solution built for our needs.

Apart from a lot of scope, which it has for improvement, like analytics, api's, customer service, downtimes. It still provides a lot of value, it is helpful for us in Business crtical areas, managing subscriptions and creating and launching coupons, ease of usability, camparatively lower maintainence are some valid reasons to prefer Recurly.

Very good usability just needs more documentation for new features.

They have always been quick to respond and help. I love their chat feature at the bottom right-hand corner of the platform.

A quality team who know their product and the industry they operate in.

Recurly does a much better job at handling subscription payments than QuickBooks Online. We only use QuickBooks Online when we have a client who cannot pay via credit/debit card. In those cases, we send out automatic invoices via QuickBooks Online instead. 95% of our clients are processed through Recurly.

ServicePath stood out from the rest due to: a) Product management including cost modeling, through CPQ, and client lifecycle management capability. b) Easy of use and simplification of complex scenarios. c) Easy to use, very capable, no code configured, and guided products.

• Providing an interface for our subscribers to manage their own accounts has simplified our business tremendously. This alone has freed up hours of our staff's time each day.
• Many customers receive new credit cards due to expiration or fraud. The time we spent in updating this information prior to using Recurly's Revenue Recovery feature versus now is significant.

• Positive impact on ROI: previous spreadsheet system was at a dead end.
• Enabled new starters to be more productive early on.
• Opened up the solution to improved commercial client lifecycle management.
• Reduced errors and omissions.
