In today’s competitive business landscape, it is essential for organizations to maintain a high level of customer retention. SaaS companies are commonly evaluated based on their ability to retain customers relative to their industry peers, but retention benchmarks can vary greatly across businesses. To

Since leaky rowboats can only hold a certain amount of water, it is important for the companies who own them to make sure that their retention rates are high enough to prevent them from sinking. SaaS companies face higher churn rates than traditional software companies, so it is crucial that they create an onboarding experience that keeps customers happy and engaged. If retention rates drop too low, the company will find itself struggling against the ever-rising tide of customer exodus.

The finding of ChartMogul’s research suggests that many SaaS businesses are struggling to retain their customers, which could result in lowered revenue and profitability in 2022.

The study found that the net revenue retention rate for companies that have not yet hit product-market fit is significantly lower than those companies who have already attained this point. Benchmarking data indicates that the retention rate for companies in the ARR range of $2-10 million is 63%. This compares to a 97% retention rate for companies with an ARR of over $10 million. Therefore, it appears that increasing net revenue beyond a certain threshold does not necessarily correlate with increased customer satisfaction and retained earnings.

Net retention rates vary greatly depending on the stage of a business’s development. During the early stages, businesses should aim for a net retention rate of around 75%. As a business grows and becomes more established, however, its net retention rate can be higher, as customers want to keep their relationships with the company long-term.
