Problem/Motivation
Seeking to add recurring payments for memberships through integration with https://www.drupal.org/project/commerce_elavon β .
Should we still "Expect pain."?
I do not see any outstanding issues for this version.
@_gradient_ How much "pain" did you endure? I imagine it is relative to each individual's tolerance and experience.

We're using it in production and seeing pain :)
For the base use case, it works fine but anything unusual (late payments etc) cause grief. It's not unusable; it just needs some TLC.

I have used it on several sites, but imho it is very unstable and has led to much pain and frustration. Worst thing is that it is almost impossible to get rid after you have installed it :-/
While I appreciate all the work that went into the module, I would recommend to proceed with care and make sure you have an "exit plan" :) :) - πΊπΈUnited States kristi wachter
Thanks to everyone for reporting your experiences.
robotjox, did you find an exit plan, and if so, could you share what you had to do to uninstall it, and what system you substituted instead?
Thanks!

It wasnΒ΄t easy, but this comment helped me at the time.
The patch in this issue as well as the steps outlined in comment 31 helped me at the time, but I think the patch needs to be rerolled: https://www.drupal.org/project/drupal/issues/2871486#comment-13894528 π field.storage YAML and FieldType plugin cannot coexist in same module because of FieldUninstallValidator constraint Needs work - πΊπΈUnited States joshuautley
@kristi-wachter, it's good to see a response to community concerns. In some instances, we're losing people to Shopify due to Drupal not having a stable solution for recurring payments.
I am available to review patches and provide feedback through dev sites.
Thank you for your contributions.

We've been using it in production for 2 years. It's twitchy, you'll want some patches to this and advanced_queue depending on your needs. We also have a fair bit of custom code written around it.
Our main pain point at this time is allowing customers to update their credit card.

FWIW, current issues we are running patches for:
Advanced Queue
