Cheaper ways to solve the same problem
What you would be giving up
Moxie is most often brought in for a solo consultant replacing four separate subscriptions for proposals, contracts, time and invoicing, a freelancer who needs a signed contract and a deposit invoice to follow proposal acceptance automatically, retainer work where tracked hours must reconcile against a fixed monthly fee on the same invoice, a designer who wants one client portal for files, approvals and payment rather than email threads. 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 Moxie is broadly right and the question is cost, the Moxie pricing breakdown covers every tier and what each one adds. If you want the whole field rather than a shortlist, the Proposals category lists everything the directory holds, and best proposals tools ranks them.
Moxie runs on web, ios, android. 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.
