BillingPlatform, the enterprise revenue lifecycle management platform for today’s innovative business models, today announced that ISG, a global AI-centered technology and research firm, has named it the Overall Leader and an “Exemplary Vendor” in its 2025 Revenue Recognition Buyers Guide based on detailed analysis of 18 revenue recognition vendors.
As part of the broader revenue lifecycle management process, ISG defines revenue recognition applications as those supporting “multiple pricing models, including subscription and usage; enabling different types of products, service and event-driven rules; providing automation and straight-through processing; creating journals and communicating with accounting systems; producing insights and analytics; and auditing reports.”
According to ISG, revenue recognition is playing a growing role in revenue lifecycle management given the “rapid rise of digital products and services, new direct online engagement channels and mixed pricing models such as subscription and consumption.” In the firm’s analysis of 18 revenue recognition vendors, BillingPlatform ranked highest in Usability, Customer Experience, Product Experience, Capability and TCO/ROI.
“As key component of the quote-to-revenue lifecycle, revenue recognition plays a critical role as enterprises increasingly leverage multiple pricing models resulting in revenue that gets recognised over time,” said Stephen Hurrell, Director of Research, Office of Revenue, ISG Software Research & Advisory. “Based on our analysis, BillingPlatform is the leader in Revenue Recognition given its rich set of features, user experience and proven ability to deliver customer value.”
The ISG Buyers Guides™ provide a balanced perspective of software providers and products that is rooted in an understanding of the business requirements of any enterprise and are used as an effective method to assess and select software providers and products. ISG defines an Exemplary Vendor as the “best in meeting the overall Product and Customer Experience requirements” for enterprise customers. In related Buyers Guide reports, ISG also named BillingPlatform the Overall Leader in Billing and a Leader in Revenue Lifecycle Management.
“While proud that we’ve been named the Overall Leader in Revenue Recognition by a major industry analyst firm, what resonates most from ISG’s analysis is our category leadership for the tools and information that are provided to establish total cost of ownership and return on investment,” said Dennis Wall, BillingPlatform CEO. “This reflects our focus and investment in our platform and revenue recognition solution with an eye toward ensuring we are helping our customers to automate, accelerate and add AI-powered insights to their full revenue lifecycle management process.”
