How do you know which analytics tool is right for your subscription business?

The answer primarily depends on what your goals are, your company size, resources available to you like budget and headcount, and other factors. 

Baremetrics, ChartMogul, and MRR.io are three popular solutions to consider for subscription metrics and analytics. Read on to learn how these three analytics platforms differ in terms of capabilities, integrations, and pricing. 

 

About Baremetrics

Baremetrics is a subscription analytics toolkit built for SaaS and subscription companies. Our toolkit helps subscription companies track the metrics most critical to their business, and then use smart features to take action on these insights.

Baremetrics empowers subscription businesses to grow with features that recover revenue, uncover why customers are cancelling, automate financial forecasting, and more.

Baremetrics dashboard

Compared to ChartMogul and MRR.io, Baremetrics offers the most comprehensive set of features essential to growing a subscription business, all in one tool.  

About ChartMogul

ChartMogul is a subscription analytics tool that helps businesses measure, understand, and grow their subscription revenue. The platform focuses on providing accurate data that can be analyzed using advanced editing capabilities and visualization options. This enables its users to discover new insights that impact business decisions.

Chartmogul metrics and analytics

Since charts, dashboards, and data segmentation and auditing are the primary focus for ChartMogul, there’s a lack of customer engagement and dunning features. So, if you want to take action on your business insights, you’ll likely need other tools.

 

About MRR.io

MRR.io is an analytics tool that’s primarily focused on tracking MRR and other SaaS business metrics. The platform offers accurate metrics with a low monthly subscription fee, making it appealing for newer companies. However, it has limited support for custom dashboards, customer segmentation, and other advanced analytics capabilities.

MRR.io analytics

While MRR.io does provide basic forecasting capabilities with its Pro version, it doesn’t offer features beyond email reports and cohort analysis. This limits the usefulness of the insights the tool provides because it’s not easy for users to take action on them.

Which is right for you: Baremetrics, ChartMogul, or MRR.io?

While all three analytics platforms can help you track subscription metrics, there are some key differences to consider.

ChartMogul offers in-depth data analytics and segmentation, but it doesn’t offer many features for taking action on these insights.

MRR.io is a less expensive alternative that provides accurate metrics but is limited when it comes to customization, segmentation, and other key processes. 

Baremetrics provides an easy-to-use analytics dashboard with dozens of key metrics for SaaS and subscription businesses. We also go beyond analytics by also offering automated tools for dunning and churn insights, as well advanced financial forecasting and scenario planning. 

Our unique combination of features help subscription companies track real-time performance and take action on these insights to propel their business forward.
