For many SaaS companies, accurate billing based on product usage is a major challenge.
Capturing and integrating usage data into invoicing systems often requires complex manual processes or multiple third-party tools that don’t communicate well with each other.
This creates inefficiencies, increases the risk of billing errors, and delays revenue recognition.
The situation is particularly frustrating for IT teams, who face pressure to deliver seamless solutions while juggling competing priorities and tight budgets.
Without the right tools, software companies risk not only operational inefficiencies but also damaged customer relationships due to incorrect invoices or delays in billing cycles.
These issues can spiral into larger problems, such as missed revenue opportunities and costly errors that are difficult to trace.
How NetSuite from FinanSys and UniFi Solves the Problem
NetSuite from FinanSys, enhanced by UniFi, is designed to eliminate the complexities of integrating product usage data into billing workflows.
Here’s how:
Seamless Usage Data Integration
UniFi acts as a middleware that captures product usage metrics directly from your SaaS platforms.
It automates the flow of data into NetSuite, removing the need for manual intervention or multiple disconnected systems. This ensures accuracy while saving time for your IT team.
Automated Invoicing
UniFi can process the captured usage data, calculate prices and applicable taxes, and push the finalised information into NetSuite for invoicing.
This automated process ensures customers are billed accurately and on time, enhancing their experience with your brand.
Customisable Workflows
With FinanSys, every setup is tailored to your company’s unique needs.
We design and implement solutions that fit your specific usage-to-billing requirements, providing a seamless transition from data capture to revenue recognition.
Enhanced Reporting and Visibility
By combining UniFi’s advanced reporting capabilities with NetSuite’s comprehensive financial management tools, you can gain a clear view of your billing pipeline.
This transparency helps IT and finance teams collaborate more effectively, reduces disputes, and speeds up payment cycles.
