Number of Seats/Users: Petrofly offers discounts based on the number of users or seats. A higher volume typically leads to a better discount structure, especially for enterprise-level usage.

Commitment to a Long-Term Contract: Discounts are often provided to companies that commit to using the service for a longer period (e.g., 1-year or 3-year contracts). A longer commitment shows Petrofly that the company is serious and willing to invest in the platform long-term.

No Active Discounts: Companies that are not already receiving other active discounts may have a better chance of qualifying for additional discounts from Petrofly. Petrofly reserves discounts for new customers or those not currently under promotional pricing.

Volume or Usage Commitment: Petrofly offers discounts if you agree to a minimum amount of usage or transaction volume. This could be based on data storage, transactions, or other metrics tied to how much you will use the platform.

Enterprise-Level Negotiation: Companies that qualify as “enterprise” due to their size or complexity (e.g., having large teams, multiple departments, or geographical presence) may be eligible for additional discounts from Petrofly. Such companies are often in a position to negotiate for better pricing.

Early Renewal or Prepayment: Petrofly often offers discounts if you renew early or prepay for the entire contract period. This is a common approach to securing a lower price.

Here at Spendbase our internal data shows that Petrofly is consistently rated very highly by Spendbase clients, especially for ease of use, onboarding speed, and hands-on support.

Below is a short breakdown of what we see most often.

Key strengths our clients highlight
– Fast implementation and migration
– General ledger, chart of accounts, and division of interests can be moved over in under a week in many cases.
– Data migration is described as “seamless” and well-communicated.

• Ease of use for non-technical teams
• Accounts receivable and payable are called out as very intuitive.

• Clients say they were able to follow the workflow already from the first demo and then replicate it easily in daily use.

• Strong fit for oil & gas operations

• Petrofly handles royalty distributions, joint interest billing, and production management in one place.

• The team clearly understands typical oil & gas challenges: investors, royalty owners, and complex well-level accounting.

• Highly responsive customer service

• Support is described as immediate and very hands-on.

• Petrofly actively helps set up bookkeeping, royalty payments, and accounting modules, not just “answer tickets.”

• Customization potential

• Petrofly can customize modules and workflows to match a company’s specific accounting and reporting needs.
• Many clients treat Petrofly almost like a configurable platform rather than a fixed product.

Main pain points we see
– Heavy reports can be slow to generate
– Large profitability reports (hundreds of wells, hundreds of transactions each) can take noticeable time to process.
– Custom reports require support
– While the team reacts quickly, many clients would like more self-serve control over report layouts and custom fields.

From a Spendbase cost-optimization angle, our internal benchmarks suggest:
– Petrofly’s automation of royalty payments and JIBs can cut manual processing time significantly, which often translates to lower headcount needs or the ability to scale without hiring.
– The fast onboarding and strong support reduce hidden “switching costs,” which is a big factor in total cost of ownership.

In short, Spendbase clients see Petrofly as a high-touch, industry-focused solution that trades a bit of reporting self-service for strong support, deep oil & gas functionality, and meaningful operational savings.
