ChurnZero Named Overall SaaS Category Winner in the APPEALIE Awards

Share

Today 31 SaaS apps were recognized for their demonstrated excellence and customer delight. The competition consisted of four categories – Overall SaaS, SaaS Customer Success, iOS Mobile SaaS App, and Andriod Moblie SaaS App.

Entries were evaluated by a judging panel of customer success experts from Chargebee, MeetEdgar, ProsperWorks, and Reply.

“Winning in today’s SaaS marketplace requires customer-obsessed teams and products that consistently deliver value and help their users succeed,” commented Matt Harney, Founder of APPEALIE. “Our focus on customer data, real-life success stories, and client input created a democratic process where entrants were evaluated not on the size of their user base – but on customers delight.”

There was a diverse set of winners, ranging from 6 large, publicly listed SaaS companies – like Salesforce and ServiceNow – to some of the most prominent privately held software platforms – like DocuSign, Intercom, and Slack – to hyper-growth stage apps like ChurnZero, CallRail, MindTickle, and monday.com.

“SaaS has changed software forever,” says You Mon Tsang, CEO & Founder of ChurnZero. “This includes the simplified delivery and on-boarding model, a straightforward business model (monthly, annual), and a real focus on true customer success. While no company likes swapping software systems, the SaaS model makes switching less painful and therefore keeps SaaS providers honest in providing a truly valuable offering.”

We are proud to be recognized in this SaaS winners list. Check out the full list of APPEALIE Award winners here.
