So far so good

What do you like best? easy to navigate, fairly easy to add in customers. Enjoy the prorated billing feature. What do you dislike? the manual import of data into the system Recommendations to others considering the product: Have someone else do the import, it is very time consuming & we were not able to export all of the data we needed, so it takes a lot longer if you choose to do the import yourself- if you are coming from a previous database. What problems are you ...

Use for invoicing clients

What do you like best? Chargify helps me automate my billing. It helps us keep track of who is past due, a record of all statements/transactions, and generally easy to use. What do you dislike? I wish there was a way to edit client information via their subscription instead of having to go to Customers. I also wish that it send automated emails to our billing department when a card declines, expires, or a client goes past due/canceled. What problems are you solving with the ...

Great for medium sized saas bsuinesses

What do you like best? Being able to easily dive down into my MRR and other subscription metrics, such as churn and churn cohorts. That is something I was not able to do before using Chargify. What do you dislike? Chargify doesn't integrate well with my other apps, so I'm needing to create webhooks and Zapier integrations to trigger actions inside of my CRM. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? Running our monthly subscription ...

Decent payment platform

What do you like best? I really appreciate the multiple payment platforms & integrations that Chargify supports, especially as we expand to international audiences. What do you dislike? I really dislike the user interface, especially in managing customer payments. They really need a UX designer to fix the experience. Also, there needs to be a better way to manage staging vs production data. Recommendations to others considering the product: Use Stripe instead. Stripe has ...

Old Platform or New Platform? (are you just signing up or have you been a customer?)

What do you like best? It is simple to use but the downside is it lacked customization when we needed it. What do you dislike? Due to lack of customization, we ended up with multiple products for different price points. We also did not have the ability to integrate with NetSuite. And, unfortunately, if you are a large legacy customer like us, you cannot integrate with NetSuite, two whole years after the promised integration. Recommendations to others considering the product: ...

Challenging but reliable

What do you like best? Allows you to clearly see account expansion and contraction. What do you dislike? Our subsciption plan is contains both annual and monthly subscriptions and it can be difficult to accurately track expansion and contraction. Was also extremely difficult to use and we received poor levels of support. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? Handles subscription billing management.

HR/Accounting Coordinator

What do you like best? The ability to view all products in the catalog. I can see which product matches each price point and can downgrade/upgrade products at any time. What do you dislike? Very difficult to set up for running the billings that we charge in arrears - variable numbers that change every month. We upload a script and it should automatically register the charge whether it runs successfully or not so that the declined charges will continue to attempt to be charged. ...

Account Executive, Americas

What do you like best? Simple UI. Simple and configurable options. What do you dislike? It is very complex to understand how to complete specific tasks in the product (adding coupons, calculating price increase/decrease, etc.) Not a pleasant invoice look. Recommendations to others considering the product: Quicker and more accessible product support. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? As a business we need CF to ...
