Zuora is mucho $$$ though, and Spreedly has a ways to go before it's a full-featured solution. Their current focus I believe is on being solid with regards to ordinary subscriptions first and expanding from there.
Unfortunately, for most of the projects I've done, there are too many types of transactions, extra costs, etc. so I've had to roll my own. I've built a somewhat reusable app for this now, so it's a time saver now, but it was a huge time waster earlier on.
- paulsingh 17y agoFWIW, I wouldn't recommend Zuora. I've spent the last ~8 months trying to move off of our home-grown system and Zuora's just not there yet. Unfortunately, we're starting to think about bringing it back in-house. Though, we'd probably use an open source base such as "Freemium" and build around that.
- ntalbott 17y agoHey, Spreedly guy here - we're definitely a full-featured solution, and we're already servicing dozens of businesses (we've sold 30 Kickstarts [http://spreedly.com/info/kickstart http://spreedly.com/info/kickstart] in less than two weeks, so we must be doing something right!). Sorry if we've ever given off a different impression. What you may be referring to is that we're primarily focused on time-based subscriptions for now, vs. usage based subscriptions - that much is true. That said, very soon you'll be able to pile usage charges on top of any time-based subscription, which covers what a lot of businesses need in terms of usage fees. Still not clear? Probably my fault! Hit me up at support@spreedly.com anytime and I'll gladly clarify.
