What do you like best about Zuora Billing?

I was extremely impressed with the Zuora team who lead our implementation. They were experienced, knowledgable, patient and kind. Excellent follow-through. It's been over 3 months since we've been live with Zuora for our billing. It's definitely a step up from our prior home-grown solution which involved integrating Stripe & other tools. With Zuora, we have greater visibility into the status of our billing, and greater functionality to price our products and services, employ discounting, and bill our customers. The API is powerful. The permissioning works well, and there are plenty of custom fields. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zuora Billing?

Zuora has a very robust database / data model and functionality to meet our needs. However, the user interface leaves a little to be desired. The API is powerful and useful, however, I find myself wishing for more powerful in-app editing capabilities - such as the ability to bulk edit accounts. We wish the integration with the Stripe gateway had more functionality such as auto card updater and ability to void credit card transactions. Not sure if this is a Stripe API limitation or not.

Recommendations to others considering Zuora Billing:

Ensure you have allocated an internal resource (and plenty of time) to the implementation, especially if you are migrating customer data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Since implementing Zuora, our business now visibility into our outstanding balance (in collections). We now have a clear source of truth for our Product Offering (Product Catalog). We've gained more trust in our account and billing data, and we no longer need to rely on our senior engineers to report on billing-related metrics for our business. A big win!

The menu on the left, I never use it, it takes you out of the Account you are looking at and exits you completely.

What do you like best about Zuora Billing?

We like that it is designed for both corporate-level accounting as well as consumer-level billing and it is already audit ready. We also love the additional modern payment methods that it brings to the table for our consumers with the likes of apple pay, google pay, and amazon pay, you can nearly take any and all forms of payment with proper integrations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zuora Billing?

One thing that could use improvement is the integration with our existing custom in-house billing systems. The integrations with backend processes to facilitate subscription creation, cancelation, and extension have taken longer than expected. That being said the zuora team is responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Zuora is simplifying our corporate accounting and we are now able to apply the correct taxes localized all over the world and we are able to accept new forms of payment from different modern payment systems, like google pay and apple pay and amazon pay making our subscription accessibility easier.

What do you like best about Zuora Billing?

Honestly, once you get used to the system and the way things work, it's pretty easy to use. It is especially beneficial in terms of customers who have contracts with us that span multiple years, and the way it groups said contracts together. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zuora Billing?

The discount piece on invoices can be a bit difficult when it comes to discounts that should be applied at a line level (percent) or discounts that should be applied to the whole invoice (flat rate). We are still working through this between our billing team and our sales team (i.e., best practices). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Zuora Billing is helping us in how we invoice customers, whether it is a single year deal or a multi year deal. It is also helping us figure out where the invoice lives, i.e., at the parent level or at the customer level, so that we can properly recognize revenue (through Zuora Revenue).
