Cons
  • Expensive relative to competitors and priced opaquely — no published rates, so budgeting needs a sales cycle
  • Contracts carry minimum commitments and, per some reviewers, early-termination penalties
  • Reporting is seen as insufficiently granular by reviewers who want deeper analysis
  • Some integrations are one-way or need custom development work to fully connect
  • Pricing and usage limits should be checked against the exact plan
  • Fit is strongest for the stated Startup, Mid-market, Enterprise audience
  • Reported outcomes should be validated with the buyer's own data
