Essex businesses tend to reach us at the same point: the current system has become the constraint rather than the tool, and the workarounds have started to cost more than the software. That is the point at which subscription management software is worth doing properly.

## Coverage

Our Essex coverage includes Chelmsford, Colchester, Southend-on-Sea, Basildon, Harlow and Brentwood, and the CM, SS, CO, IG and RM postcode districts. If you are in Essex and not on that list, we almost certainly still cover you, so ask.

## What is included

- **A real service catalogue:** What you supply, held once and applied per client with quantity, cost and sell price. When a vendor puts their price up, you can see every client it touches in one query.
- **Renewals on a dated view:** What is renewing in the next thirty, sixty and ninety days, by client and by value, with the margin alongside. Renewals become diary entries rather than surprises.
- **Margin on every line:** Cost and sell held together, so the margin on a service is a fact rather than an assumption. The lines that have quietly gone to zero over three vendor price rises become obvious.
- **Recurring revenue you can total:** Monthly and annual recurring revenue by client, by service and by category, with the cost base underneath it. The number that determines what the business is worth, computed rather than estimated.
- **Notice periods that do not lapse:** Term, notice period and auto-renewal held per agreement, with alerts before the notice window closes rather than after it.
- **Tied to the support it generates:** Incidents attach to the service they concern, so you can see which supplied services generate the most support load - and price accordingly at renewal.

## Real-world use cases

### A workbook maintained by one person

**Scenario:** Renewals lived in a spreadsheet with conditional formatting, maintained by the operations manager. It was accurate when she updated it, which was less often than anybody assumed. Two renewals auto-rolled at old pricing in a single year.
**Outcome:** Services are structured records with terms and renewal dates. The dated view is generated rather than maintained, and auto-renewals now surface before the notice window rather than on the invoice.

### Margin eroded by vendor price rises

**Scenario:** A backup product had increased in price three times over four years. The client price had not moved. Nobody had noticed because cost and sell were held in different places, and by the time it was found the line was slightly loss-making.
**Outcome:** Cost and sell sit on the same line. A vendor increase can be applied across every affected client in one operation, and lines below a margin threshold are flagged rather than discovered.

### Licence counts that had drifted

**Scenario:** A client had been billed for thirty-eight mailboxes for two years. They had thirty-one. The credit, when it was eventually spotted, was uncomfortable in both directions - and there were almost certainly cases going the other way that were never found.
**Outcome:** Quantities are held per client service and reconciled at renewal. The drift is visible, in both directions, before it becomes a conversation about credits.

## Figures

- **30/60/90** Renewal horizon, by client and by value
- **Cost + sell** Held on the same line, so margin is a fact
- **One query** Every client affected by a vendor price rise

## Frequently asked questions

**Does this replace our accounting system?**

No. CubeMSP holds what you supply, at what cost and price, on what term - and produces the billing data. Your accounts package keeps the ledger. We would rather feed the system your accountant already knows than ask them to learn ours.

**Can it handle mid-term changes?**

Yes. Quantities and prices change during a term more often than they do not, and each change is recorded with its effective date so the history stays truthful rather than being overwritten.

**How are vendor price rises applied?**

Because the service is defined once and applied per client, a cost change can be reviewed against every affected client line in a single operation - showing you exactly which clients drop below your margin threshold before you decide what to do.

**What about services we do not resell?**

Anything recurring can be held here, whether or not there is a third-party cost - your own managed service tiers, monitoring, out-of-hours cover and hosted services all sit in the same catalogue with a cost of zero where appropriate.

**Does it produce invoices?**

It produces the billing data - what to charge, to whom, for what period - and pushes it out through the API to your finance system. Raising the invoice itself stays where your finance process already lives.
