Where each one falls short

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

Avoma

  • Conversation Intelligence, the capability most buyers actually want, is a 29 US dollar per seat add-on rather than part of the plan, so the real cost of a working sales configuration is at least 53 per user per month against a 19 headline.
  • Seat ceilings are baked into tiers, with Startup capped at 25 seats and Organization at 100, so growth forces a plan change for headcount reasons alone rather than feature reasons.
  • Conversation intelligence on the Organization tier is explicitly limited, meaning teams discover which parts are missing after they have committed to an annual contract.
  • Deal and forecast analytics are considerably shallower than dedicated revenue intelligence platforms, so an organisation that grows into serious pipeline inspection will replace the add-on rather than expand it.
  • Summary quality depends on the note template being maintained, and teams that never configure templates get generic recaps that nobody reads, which quietly turns the subscription into an expensive transcript archive.

Dubsado

  • Automated workflows, scheduling and public proposals all require the Premier plan at $525 a year
  • The Starter plan allows a single lead capture form
  • Zapier and bookkeeping integrations are excluded from Starter
  • Additional brands are $10 a month each
  • Only 3 users are included, with 4 to 10 costing $25 a month and 21 to 30 costing $60
