Net Revenue Retention

Definition

The percentage of recurring revenue retained from existing customers over a period, including upsells, cross-sells, downgrades, and churn.

NRR (also called NDR -- Net Dollar Retention) above 100% means a company is growing revenue from its existing customer base even without acquiring new customers. Top-performing SaaS companies achieve NRR of 120%+, driven by strong expansion revenue. NRR is one of the most important metrics for SaaS valuations because it indicates product stickiness, customer satisfaction, and the efficiency of the land-and-expand strategy.
