What do you like best about Ordway?

Ordway team is awesome. Their platform allows me not to have to worry about invoicing and revenue recognition now, or in the future when we raise capital or audit our finances. And, their customer service has been solid. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ordway?

Everything has gone smoothly so far. When we do have a feature or enhancement request, they follow-up quickly to let us know it's in the works or that they'll add it to the dev list, and they give us a workaround until then. That said, it seems like that "wish list" for us is really short. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Ordway solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are solving billing and revenue recognition with Ordway. Using their platform has been a time and cost savings for us. When considering the cost and distraction it would have been to have our limited tech resources build a system for us and hiring someone to manage back-office infrastructure, it made sense. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ordway?

Like most SaaS companies we had a very complex legacy billing & revenue recognition process that had evolved over time. We set out to find a billing platform that would enable us to retain the same level of customization and control we had w/ our manual spreadsheet-based process, but found that all of the big players in the ERP and SaaS billing spaces were basically unable to accomodate our needs (we evaluated NetSuite , Chargebee, Zuora, SaasOptics, Recurly etc). Ordway immediately stood out as an intuitive platform that is highly customizable and intuitive. he implementation team was super helpful (shout out to Max and Hemant), and so is their general customer support team (shout out to Sneha). At one point during our implementation they even connected us with their product team in order to make a custom revenue in order fit our unique business needs. While it took us over a year to fully flesh out the integration between our website and Ordway and to migrate all of our customers to Ordway, I am confident that we made the right choice. Our revenue close process is now faster, more accurate, and more transparent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ordway?

Overall I have only positive things to say about Ordway. On occassion we have experienced some minor glitches with the UI, but they are super responsive to support tickets and issues are generally resolved very quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Ordway solving and how is that benefiting you?

Ordway allows us to build custom billing and revenue schedules for our customers. As a part of this it generates invoices and receipts that sync to our website. It's a very intuitive and customizable platform that makes it easier for us to recognize revenue and for our customers to pay their invoices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ordway?

We've been Ordway customers for over a year now and they've been a game changer for our billing operations. What we love most about Ordway is how flexible their product/platform is. I'm pretty certain they are able to configure anything we would ever need it to. Their customer support is also incredible and have been super helpful anytime we've needed their assistance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ordway?

Ordway's platform flexibility is really impressive. However, the extreme flexibility could make it difficult to identify the most effective 'best practices' approach to one's specific use cases. Would highly recommend working closely with their onboarding team to understand the exact end to end workflow you are looking to implement. This will help enable them to advise accordingly to making the most of their platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Ordway solving and how is that benefiting you?

Ordway has significantly streamlined our operations by addressing our needs in billing, subscription management, and revenue recognition. It's transformed the way we handle our billing processes. Managing subscriptions / rev rec has become much more efficient, simplifying what used to be a manual complex process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ordway?

Ordway allows our business to automate the billing and revenue recognition processes more than other tools in the space. The data organization simplifies the complicated ASC 606 revenue recognition process, and makes reporting easy. Because not every product has the same revenue recognition schedule even within the same company, flexibility is a huge non-negotiable for a company like ours, and Ordway was the only company who could support our framework, while allowing space to grow alongside them in future years.

By utilizing their dunning features, we have also noticed a considerable improvement in our collections efforts without having to add more human hours to follow up efforts.

Beyond the tool, their white glove implementation services and personnel make Ordway an easy choice. Our implementation specialist, Nicholas has been a rockstar helping us bring over all of our historical invoices, payments and revenue tie out to ensure that Ordway can be our source of record from inception to date. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ordway?

We made the choice to bring in all historical information to Ordway, which was performed by moving through a lot of manual report building and checks. A difficult problem to solve! Our implementation team was very helful with the process, and now that the information is included, it makes our annual reporting much more valuable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Ordway solving and how is that benefiting you?

Captures all information related to billing, payments, aging, SSP implementation, customer communications and Revenue Recognition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ordway?

I like how everything in it is intuitive. The customer support team that includes Nikhil and our account rep Sneha are the absolutely best. They get back to you quickly and are always helpful in making sure you have what you need. Sneha has gone out of her way to provide help, create reports for us, and walk us through different parts of the platform.

We use Ordway every day and the fact we were able to add notes into the system seamlessly and has been a game changer for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ordway?

The one thing I am not a fan of is their analytic reporting. It's a work in progress and while it will be great eventually, there are some bugs to work out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Ordway solving and how is that benefiting you?

What do you like best about Ordway?

Ordway is amazingly easy to use and extremely flexible for all types of billing use cases. We have some complex deals and Ordway is able to handle them all. Also, it integrates with our other tools. All staff members are great to work with and extremely knowledgable; not only in the software, but billing best practices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ordway?

A downside would be initial configuration, the implementation team will work with you until it's fully implemented to fit your use case. This is to be expected as billing is complex. But, again, the great implementation, customer success, and suport teams are there to support you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Ordway solving and how is that benefiting you?

The main challenge we had with previous billing and subscription management software was rigid configuration. Ordway is extremely flexible and can handle all our billing use cases and scenarios. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have had no issues with Ordway in the 2+ years working with them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ordway is a replacement for our outdated, proprietary billing system which was built in-house. Ordway's solution gives us total flexibility to design and automate various billing models tied to usage of our payment services. Clients love that we are not tied to 1 or 2 billing models but can work with them to design a plan optimized for their business and budget. Our monthly billing cycle is completely automated by Ordway and integrated to our preferred payment gateway. The Ordway solution supports credit, debit and ACH payments as well as secure tokenization of all payment types. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
