What do you like best about Zuora?

The customer database is fine, and the information is very accurate. Is a very good tool for monthly subscriptions business Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zuora?

Our business model was based on SASS annual revenue, and the idea of Zuora is based on a monthly subscription model, this was not fit very much and we can't modify it for annual revenue.

The subscription feature was based on a daily rate x month. And did not contemplate the annual model. so we can't modify the subscriptions according to this. Sometimes we had annual amounts, different than the contract amount.

The way to modify the subscriptions includes amendments and not all can be modified correctly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zuora:

Is a very good tool for SASS business based on monthly subscriptions, like Spotify or Netflix Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Zuora offered us a concept that helped us to change our business model, from bookings to SASS. Also, we could anticipate our renewals and make accurate reports Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zuora?

The ease of being able to utilize this product is truly the best thing about it. I like how it lets you manage the opportunity and see where the deal stands. It measures the financial impact and gives a look at the overall business. It works great for when you are testing out pricing plans and don't know what the effect will be. It is a solution that helps upscale the entire business and great customer service when you need it. It workes great when we had changes to billing frequences and wanted to create a usage model to see how it is supported with this product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zuora?

I don't like that only certain representatives know how to utilize this product. It could be more user-friendly to anyone that is wanting insights on where the account is. If you can ensure training is available for everyone in the department regardless of whether they use it daily or not. It will help with everyone knowing how to read the dashboard and what they are looking for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Zuora?

The Workflow (Collections) add-on has helped with collections automation, allowing our specialists to spend more time interfacing with customers and solving their issues and less time composing and sending emails. The recent addition of Invoice Settlement has provided exceptional flexibility when processing transactions; credit memos, debit memos and unapplied payments are a huge step in the right direction. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zuora?

Making changes to subscriptions is cumbersome because we sell subscriptions as well as physical products, but we are adding CPQ to help facilitate the process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zuora:

If you have a simple and basic pricing plan for your subscriptions, you will have little problem implementing. Added complexity brings added difficulty, but Invoice Settlement can help with transactional accounting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Collections automation. Batch processing of back-end accounting transactions. Account clean-up post-cancellation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
