What are people's thoughts on this service?

I use it (with Recurly). It's fantastic, especially since Recurly's built-in reports don't seem to jive with reality (for instance by ignoring coupons on subscriptions). The multi-user support and email alerts are also useful.

Hi benjaminfox,

Great to hear you're using and liking ChartMogul...that's great!

How's it different from HookFeed or Baremetrics?

You can signup for a free trial to find out. You'll find it quite different than other systems on the market.

As a heads up, this isn't a really useful response, and triggers some red flags while evaluating services.

It's probably worth spending some time on figuring out how to explain to a prospective customer that is familiar with the marketplace what makes the product different.

Hi there, apologies for the terse answer, what I should have said is that it's always a good idea to try 2-3 solutions before deciding which one works best for your business.

I believe we are the only ones with geo-mapping and the ability to define custom sales regions. You can slice your data by plan, region, etc.

We also allow you to choose how your churn rate is calculated and have tools to allow you to really drill deep into the data instead of just showing nice looking graphs: https://chartmogul.com/blog/2015/01/dig-into-your-metrics-wi...

There is certainly some overlap but the whole experience in general is quite different than what else is out there so I would certainly encourage taking both systems for a spin.
