ChartMogul gives us great insight to our data with minimal work on our end

Pros

  • Data Ingestion - Because we use a payment processor that ChartMogul understands, they are able to ingest the data automatically and process it with almost no input from us.
  • Analysis and Insights - Once we got our data into ChartMogul, we immediately started seeing some patterns in our data that hadn't previously been apparent to us.
  • Customizability - ChartMogul makes it fairly easy to customize and extend the dashboard (and to enrich our data manually via the API).

Cons

  • Currency fluctuations - ChartMogul does a great job of converting our payment currency into our operating currency for us, however it doesn't yet support using this currency data to show us how fluctuations in these exchange rates affect changes in our metrics over time.
  • API coverage - There are currently things that are possible via the dashboard (for example, filtered searches), which are not yet exposed in the customer-facing API.
  • Flexibility - We've found a few areas where ChartMogul's expectations differ from our own for what our data means and how to interpret it, and we've had to jump through a few hoops to resolve this.

Return on Investment

  • It's unfortunately difficult for us to directly analyze the ROI impact of ChartMogul on our business, however, we do absolutely feel that we have a better handle on the subscription numbers behind our business.
