Subscription-Based Collaboration SaaS Platform
Our client wanted to launch a team collaboration SaaS product with tiered subscription plans, without building billing and multi-tenant account management from scratch on their own.
The primary challenge was architecting a multi-tenant system that isolated each team’s data properly, while supporting plan upgrades, downgrades, and usage-based billing cleanly.
Getting subscription billing wrong at launch would have meant costly rework later, so the billing architecture needed to support future pricing changes from the start.

Solution
Zyber Zing designed and built a multi-tenant SaaS platform with subscription billing architected in from the start, not bolted on later.
Built with React on the frontend and a Node.js and PostgreSQL backend, the platform keeps each team’s workspace data properly isolated.
Redis-backed real-time syncing powers collaborative workspace features, while a dedicated billing service handles tiered plans, upgrades, and usage-based charges.
Billing, accounts, and workspace features run as separate services, so pricing changes or new plan tiers can be introduced without reworking the core product.
