The short version

  • Only Assembly has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Assembly client counts are capped by tier, at 50 on Starter and 500 on Professional; Darwinbox no pricing is published anywhere on the site; visitors are directed only to schedule a demo or request early access rather than see a figure

Where each one falls short

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

Assembly

  • Client counts are capped by tier, at 50 on Starter and 500 on Professional
  • Automation tasks are metered, at 100 a month on Starter and 1,000 on Professional
  • Extra internal users cost $29 each on Professional and $59 on Advanced, on top of the plan
  • Full white-labelling requires Advanced at $499 a month and SSO is Enterprise only at $2,000
  • The workspace locks when a trial lapses and the account may be deleted after 30 days

Darwinbox

  • No pricing is published anywhere on the site; visitors are directed only to schedule a demo or request early access rather than see a figure
  • The vendor's own homepage frames access around demos and early access programs rather than self-serve signup, meaning evaluation requires a sales conversation before any cost is known
