any real-world feedback on platforms like Orb, Metronome, Lago, Maxio, etc.?
We’re a B2B infrastructure SaaS company evaluating platforms for usage/metered billing and trying to understand where the real differences start showing up outside of marketing pages.
main use case is billing based on things like compute, storage, transactions, API usage, etc. we also need support for credits, discounts, customer-specific pricing logic, and flexible plans as things evolve.
right now we’re looking at tools like Orb, Metronome, Amberflo, Lago, Maxio, and Stripe’s usage-based billing setup, but curious what people here have actually used in production and how it held up over time.
especially interested in implementation complexity, integrations, pricing surprises, reporting quality, and how painful things became once billing logic got more complicated.
