Side by side on what we have verified on each vendor’s own pages. Where a fact was not checked, the table says so rather than leaving a blank that reads as “no”.

Most common complaint
Feature-level add-on pricing makes the final figure hard to anticipate before a quote
The tier is capped by download count as well as volume, which is a less familiar unit to budget against
A free start exists, but the terms for moving to a paid tier are not on the page
The MAU model favours occasional users, but there is no figure to verify that with

“Not checked” means exactly that: we have not verified it, not that the platform lacks it. Every other value was read off the vendor’s own pages on the date shown on each platform page.

What to ask on the demo

One question per platform, drawn from what actually goes wrong with it — not a generic checklist. Vendors run the demo; this hands the agenda back to you.
