Used For

• +**Manual revenue recognition eating 30-40 hours monthly** → Automated schedules that are audit-ready in minutes, reducing work to 10-15 hours
• +**Chasing failed payments and overdue invoices manually** → Custom dunning schedules and automated retries handle collections while you sleep
• +**Board meetings where you can't explain churn or ARR changes** → One-click reports with drillable dashboards that show exactly what happened
• +Handles stacked promotions and complex pricing without bloating your product catalog
• +Auto-syncs paid invoices to your general ledger - no more manual journal entries

Best For

• >Your finance team spends 30+ hours a month wrestling spreadsheets for revenue recognition
• >Failed an audit because your billing data was scattered across 5 different tools
• >Hit ASC 606 compliance requirements and your current setup is held together with prayer

Not For

• -Solo founders or startups under 20 people — you're paying enterprise prices for audit features you don't need
• -Companies wanting simple Stripe + QuickBooks billing — this is overkill if you're not dealing with complex subscriptions
• -Teams without dedicated finance people — someone needs to own the setup and ongoing policy management

Pairs With

• *Salesforce (where deals start before flowing into Maxio for actual billing and revenue tracking)
• *NetSuite (your general ledger where all the automated journal entries from Maxio end up)
• *Stripe (handles the actual payment processing while Maxio manages the subscription logic)
• *HubSpot (for marketing attribution that connects to your revenue data)
• *QuickBooks (for smaller companies who need simpler GL integration than NetSuite)
• *Zapier (to connect the 6,000+ other tools Maxio doesn't natively integrate with)

The Catch

• !No public pricing means you're going into sales calls blind - expect custom quotes that scale with your ARR
• !It's feature-heavy, so you'll initially feel overwhelmed if you're coming from basic billing tools
• !You'll need someone willing to become the 'Maxio admin' or your complex billing scenarios won't work properly

Bottom Line

Turns your 40-hour monthly billing nightmare into a 10-hour automated process, but you'll pay enterprise prices even as a mid-market company.
