Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It does so many things, billing, crm, nps, dashboards. One tool for everything, which is so much better than 7 tools for different things.
  • Armatic stands for accounts receivable automatic, and that's pretty much the core value prop. It starts with our Sales Team sending & getting esignatures on our SOWs. From there, Armatic is the billing solution that keeps us on top of all invoices, subscriptions, payments, and renewals. There's a lot of functionality here too, around Customer Lifecycle -- you can run Cadences, SAT Surveys, NPS surveys, etc.
  • Armatic delivers a powerful tool to my organization, solving process problems which once required oversight of many stakeholders. Armatic's ability to automate much of the customer journey allows for improved client satisfaction on top of improved invoice processing, cash flow (DSO).

Cons

  • Honestly, it’s a great tool and they are constantly listening to feedback.
  • There's a ton in the software. I don't like the feeling that I can't get to it all-- but that says more about me than the software. We're using like 1/3 of what the platform is capable of.
  • Armatic is often on the cutting edge of integrations and feature deployment, it can occasionally impact the ease of use. This is a small set back which their support more than makes up for.
