At my previous company we used Stripe, and never saw any value in their data products. I was always curious as to why they had data products and would be interested to hear the other side – satisfied users with solved use-cases.<p>The reason it always seemed weird to me is that billing data is just one small portion of a company's data. We had all sorts of data about our users – preferences, demographics, data from marketing campaigns, how they browsed our site, etc, all of which was much more insightful than data about how they paid. Now we didn't have recurring subscriptions which perhaps adds a little value, but Stripe still delivers data via webhook back to your application, and companies still need to keep their application records up to date, so surely most details to compute MRR, churn, etc are <i>already being delivered</i>. Why would you analyse this in Stripe which doesn't have any of your other data?<p>If a company uses the very high-level Stripe products, and is (or almost) a no-code implementation, perhaps just a Stripe plugin in a Wordpress site, then I can sort of understand it, but what's the value for a company with any sort of custom integration or using any of the lower level products like billing?
