Wondering how your key SaaS funnel metrics like activation, freemium conversion, and trial conversion stack up against your peers? Companyon Ventures created a SaaS Sales Funnel Grader tool using data fromOpenView’s 2020 SaaS Product Benchmarks Report to allow founders and investors to compare funnel metrics against peers to contextualize performance and identify areas for improvement.

At the Companyon Ventures Platform Team<, we are focused on helping our portfolio companies identify and implement operational best practices faster and more effectively at the early stages of their evolution. One of my roles is to help our portfolio generate complex analytics and financial models to gain insights from their current and future key metrics.

We’re huge fans of OpenView Venture Partners, which recently published the 2020 OpenView SaaS Product Benchmarks Report. OpenView surveyed CEOs and product leaders from over 150 SaaS companies to enable operators to compare themselves against their peers across benchmarks on best-in-class freemium and free trial conversion funnels. Before using our SaaS Sales Funnel Grader, we recommend that you download and read Openview’s full report to get the most value from the tool.

About the tool

This tool will help you understand the performance of your sales funnel in the context of your GTM approach and your customer acquisition playbook. We believe that the true measure of your sales process is the ARR growth you are able to achieve, which is largely determined by the efficiency at which you are able to convert leads into paying customers (conversion rates and activation rates) and how well you retain customers.

Our tool will help you benchmark against the following key metrics of your peers:

• Web Visits to Free Account Conversion
• Free Accounts to Paid Accounts Conversion (Overall)
• Free Accounts to Paid Accounts Conversion (Based on Team)
• Free Accounts to Paid Accounts Conversion (Based on Customer Touchpoints)
• One-month Retention Rate (Based on GTM)
• Activation Rate
