What the Data Reveals About SaaS Scaling
The research, based on exclusive SaaS operational benchmarks from OPEXEngine and organizational intelligence insights from Aura, reveals that while both models can succeed, they evolve differently as companies scale.
-
At $10M-$50M revenue, Productivity-Optimized companies lead in profitability, while High-Velocity firms scale faster.
-
By $100M-$250M revenue, both models reach similar efficiency, but High-Velocity firms may eventually surpass their counterparts.
