Hyperline vs Lago
Lago is open source and flexible. The tradeoff is that your team runs it: infrastructure, upgrades and on-call sit with you rather than with a vendor.
Open source, without running it yourself
Lago is a genuinely good engine and open source is the right answer for some teams. The question is who carries the operational load: hosting, scaling, upgrades and the on-call rota for a system that issues your invoices.
- Managed infrastructure, no cluster to run, scale or patch
- CPQ and collections included, not components to assemble around the billing engine
- Revenue recognition, ASC 606 and IFRS 15 without building the schedule logic
- Support and migration, solution engineers run the move and stay reachable afterwards
