vsSequence
Sequence bills your customers. Modern makes sure they pay.
Sequence is designed for quote-to-cash work like CPQ, contracts, metered usage and revenue recognition. Modern starts where billing ends and converts revenue into cash with 600+ AP portals, inbound and outbound playbooks, cash application and forecasts based on real collections data. Many teams use both.

Sequence ends at the invoice. Modern takes it from there. Many teams use both.
Invoicing isn't collecting
Sequence automates the invoices going out. Modern automates the cash coming back, with playbooks set by customer tier that read each reply and take the next step. 90% of collections resolve with no manual touch.
AP portals sit outside billing
If a customer pays via Ariba, Coupa or Tipalti, the money never passes through your billing system. Modern takes care of the portal submission work that Sequence doesn't reach.
Keep Sequence, add Modern
Modern plugs into Sequence from day one. Your billing setup stays as it is, and collections run on top.
Live in days. DSO moving by day 90.
How the switch plays out
Week 1
ERP and CRM linked. Invoices imported, Salesforce or HubSpot in sync, AR aging mapped. None of it lands on your team.
Day 7–30
First collections live and a DSO baseline in place. AP portals lined up for automation, plus a live view of every open balance.
Day 60
Portal submissions automated and aging trending down. Dispute playbooks tuned, and DSO shows its first measurable drop.
Day 90
DSO gains confirmed and manual work off your team's plate. Most teams have already earned back more than the yearly cost.
