Subscription Billing

## What is Subscription Billing?

Comprehensive solution for complex billing scenarios, with two modules: ARED (Advanced Revenue and Expense Deferrals) and ARCB (Advanced Recurring Contract Billing). The suite covers the entire quote-to-cash process, works efficiently in the background to generate and distribute thousands of invoices to save time, eliminate costly errors and get you paid quicker. Makes collections less painful by offering a self-service web portal for customer invoices and remitting online credit card payments.

Been using this a long time. I do lease billings, and have been using it since Great Plains got rid of their lease module when they changed from DOS to Windows. It suits my needs very well. I have looked at some modules that handle leases, and they were more than I needed, and I was happy with subscription billing.

Pros

I generate a little over 100 invoices each month. These are billings that usually only change at the first of the year. It takes me about 5 minutes to generate my billing each month. I like the preview of the invoices to be billed so that I can review them before I generate them. I check the number of invoices and the total before I generate the actual invoices, so that I know they are correct.

Cons

I would like more canned reports. However, I have created a good many custom reports to give me the info I wanted.

Pros

I found the software easy to use and it was able to handle all the functions I needed to complete all my work related duties. This was a nice change from the way we use to do it. The ease of use has sped up my productivity.

Cons

The only con I have was installing and getting everything running. We had some very specific needs from combining multiple software from the old way we did things.
