Recurly Retain is a capable enterprise tool — but you're paying $249–$1,000+/mo for a billing platform you may not need just to access the retention features. ChurnRecovery gives you the cancel flow, exit survey, and pause offer functionality for free, and works alongside your existing Stripe setup without replacing it.
