What you would be giving up
DNV Navigator Port is most often brought in for a tanker operator whose vessels call at ports where a rejected declaration means a berth is lost and demurrage starts, a ship manager standardising port formalities across a mixed fleet and multiple crewing agencies, an operator that must evidence mlc work and rest compliance to a port state control inspector on demand, a cruise line calling at many ports per voyage where the paperwork volume exceeds what a bridge team can maintain manually. Anything replacing it has to cover the ones you actually depend on, and a cheaper tool that misses one of them is not cheaper.
Two things this page cannot settle. It compares on price, model, tier count and rating, because those are the fields the category listing carries, feature-level differences need both full records, which is what the head-to-head pages load. And the ratings are third-party aggregates imported with each entry rather than reviews written here, so a 0.2 difference between two tools is noise rather than a finding.
If DNV Navigator Port is broadly right and the question is cost, the DNV Navigator Port pricing breakdown covers every tier and what each one adds. If you want the whole field rather than a shortlist, the Maritime category lists everything the directory holds, and best maritime tools ranks them.
DNV Navigator Port runs on windows, web. Platform coverage is not carried on the category listing for the alternatives, so it is one more thing to check on each head-to-head page rather than here.
