Pros & Cons
Rillet
Pros
- G2 reviewers rate it about 4.9 out of 5 and most often praise the time it saves on close and reconciliation work.
- Native ASC 606 revenue recognition and usage-based billing remove the need for separate billing or revenue tools for SaaS companies.
- Its pricing page quotes 4 to 6 weeks to implement, compared with many months for NetSuite or Sage Intacct.
- Built-in SaaS metrics include ARR and MRR waterfalls, NRR, burn, and runway.
- Holds SOC 1 and SOC 2 Type II reports, and supports period locks and tiered approval workflows.
Cons
- No public subscription pricing, and implementation costs 10,000 to 30,000 USD.
- Covers financials only, with no inventory, manufacturing, purchase orders, or three-way matching.
- Young product, launched in 2024, with a small partner ecosystem and a short track record with heavily regulated filers.
- A few G2 reviewers cite a learning curve and reliance on third-party integrations such as Rippling.
Zenskar
Pros
- Handles complex contracts with usage-based, prepaid credit, ramp and discount pricing without heavy engineering work.
- ASC 606-style revenue recognition automatically generates performance obligations from contracts and syncs journal entries to the ERP.
- More than 100 prebuilt, two-way integrations covering CRMs, CPQs, ERPs, payment gateways and tax engines.
- Very high user ratings on G2 (4.9 of 5) and Software Advice (5.0), although the samples are small.
- Pricing is not a percentage of revenue, and a sandbox plus a two-to-six-week pilot are available.
Cons
- No public prices on any tier, so buyers must go through sales to get a quote.
- It is not a general ledger, so it depends on an external ERP or accounting system.
- Tax calculation and payment processing rely on third-party integrations.
- It is a young company with a small review base, so there is limited long-term track record.
