Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Amity

  • Amity Social Cloud is priced per Monthly Active User (MAU) rather than a flat seat fee, with tiers of $0.06/$0.09/$0.14 per MAU (USD) on Basic, Advanced and Max plans as archived in 2022, so cost scales directly with app usage rather than user count.

Clay

  • Two separate meters run at once, actions and data credits, and a plan can exhaust either independently
  • Data credit overage is sold at a 30% premium over the plan rate, so exceeding the allowance costs more per unit than planning for it
  • The free plan allows 500 actions, 100 data credits and 200 rows per table
  • The entry paid plan starts at $167 a month, and both paid prices are starting figures rather than fixed
  • The free plan cannot buy overage at all, so hitting the limit stops work rather than billing for it
