Pros

Chargify is an excellent solution for smaller businesses due to its ease of implementation and operation. Training new employees is a breeze, and we all love the user interface. They have laid it out so intuitively that we just know where to go next! Support is courteous and quick to respond. They take the initiative to assist and advise us as subscription charging evolves, and they frequently bring beneficial new capabilities whenever they increase prices. The API is also useful.

Cons

Some of Chargifys inherent components add complexities and complications. Ive had some difficulty managing clients using the billing module, having them manage their own information, statements, and so on through the portal. There are workarounds and fixes for almost everything. All the issues Ive come across have been fixed in due time. But putting my clients through difficulty, no matter how small, is not something I can tolerate for long. If they improve the billing and invoicing system, theyll have me as a long-term user.

The solution slacks in handling non-monthly subscriptions. Revenue recognition severely lacking for anything but monthly, credit card subscriptions Invoice handling severely lacking. Quickbook integration is very poor. Webhooks has a number of key data points missing like a customer ID on an invoice generated or invoice payment.
