Ordway Alternative
Smarter Revenue Management with Vayu
Vayu gives finance teams end-to-end control of pricing, metering, billing, revenue recognition and forecasting, not just subscription/usage billing.

At-a-Glance Comparison
Why Teams Switch from Ordway to Vayu
Ordway solves billing + rev-rec; Vayu solves the full revenue engine.
Ordway automates subscription & usage billing, revenue recognition and SaaS metrics, but finance teams often still rely on separate tools for forecasting, margin analysis or dynamic pricing iteration.
Finance ends up assembling data outside the system of record, slowing decision-making and leaving margin blind spots.
One platform,from operations to cash, owned by Finance with no stitching required.
Usage/consumption billing is flexible in Ordway, but pricing iteration and contract logic still involve setup; Vayu removes the bottleneck.
Usage pricing in Ordway requires usage ingestion, rating logic, integration, which may be heavy for rapidly evolving product models.
Every new pricing model or contract change becomes an operational or engineering project, slowing go-to-market.
No-code modeling of pricing, entitlements, tiers, usage units and contracts; Finance and RevOps iterate without developer tickets.
Finance wants forecasting + margin visibility, not just billing + revenue recognition.
While Ordway delivers automated billing and recognition, many teams still leverage separate analytics stacks for forecasting or margin.
Real-time forecasting, margin and NRR drivers built directly on unified usage + contract + billing data.
Vayu replaces more of the stack.
With Vayu, finance teams can consolidate: usage metering, subscription/usage billing, revenue recognition, forecasting, reporting, into one finance-operated engine.
