Problem: Today’s Systems Don’t Support the Subscription Business Model
Price x Unit No concept for monthly
pay-as-you-pricing
SKU Based CatalogNot built to support
subscription rate plans
Singular Orders No concept for add-ons, upgrades, and renewals,
Low VolumeNot built for B2B & B2C, credit card & invoice transactions

Salesforce’s Flat Product Catalog Cannot Handle Subscription Complexities
Salesforce Quotes uses the “One SKU, One Price” Salesforce Product Catalog – which simply doesn’t work for Subscriptions.

Background
AfterAfter
Zuora and Salesforce fueled HomeAways aggressive growth by
acquisition by enabling monetization of HomeAway’s suite of software
providers for property managers.
The integration between Salesforce and Zuora allowed us
to bring order to a messy situation and regain control over
our quote to cash process.Jim Bunch, HomeAway
Acquired 4 software companies, each with a different billing application.
No control over quoting, discounting.
No integration to Salesforce.
No 360 view!
All 4 acquisitions standardized on Salesforce and Zuora!
Control over one standard product catalog
Easy and simple products = happy customers.
On-premise model sunsetted due to growth of subscription model
