Entry price under Gainsight's $2500/month. The record does not say what unit that price is charged in, so confirm per-seat versus flat rate before comparing budgets.
What you would be giving up
Gainsight is most often brought in for customer success, retention, health scoring. 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 Gainsight is broadly right and the question is cost, the Gainsight pricing breakdown covers every tier and what each one adds. If you want the whole field rather than a shortlist, the Sales Enablement category lists everything the directory holds, and best sales enablement tools ranks them.
Gainsight runs on 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.
