The short version
- Only IBM SPSS has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
- Each has a real cost: Baremetrics priced on the revenue it measures, so the bill rises with your ARR rather than with usage: $75 a month up to $360K ARR, $255 to $3.6M and $1,152 above that; IBM SPSS add-on packages are priced separately from the base subscription, and the promotional 45% discount on them excludes renewals
- They diverge on capability: Baremetrics covers Revenue Metrics, IBM SPSS covers Statistical analysis.

Baremetrics
- Priced on the revenue it measures, so the bill rises with your ARR rather than with usage: $75 a month up to $360K ARR, $255 to $3.6M and $1,152 above that
- Payment Recovery and Cancellation Insights are separate add-ons at $129 a month each

- There is no free tier, only a trial
IBM SPSS
- Add-on packages are priced separately from the base subscription, and the promotional 45% discount on them excludes renewals
- Subscription cost renews at the then current price at the end of the first year, so the advertised rate applies to the first term only
- Prices shown are described by IBM as indicative, vary by country and exclude applicable taxes and duties
- Extended access periods of 12 months or more are handled as tailored pricing rather than a published rate
- Advanced statistics, custom tables, decision trees and forecasting are separate add-ons rather than part of the base product
