Where each one falls short

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

Blubrry

  • Entry plan at $7 per month allows only 1.5 hours of new audio published per month
  • Advanced podcast statistics require the $25 per month Advanced 6 plan; cheaper plans get standard statistics only
  • Monetization features are restricted to the Advanced plans
  • Dynamic ad insertion, programmatic advertising, unlimited shows and sub-accounts sit on a Professional tier with no published price
  • Publishing allowance is measured in hours of audio per month, so a long-form show hits the cap quickly

Unbounce

  • Starter tier severely limited to 5 pages and 500 monthly visitors; inadequate for most marketing campaigns
  • All tiers have monthly visitor caps; campaigns exceeding thresholds require upgrading to higher-priced plans
  • Optimize tier ($249/mo) capped at 50,000 monthly visitors; campaigns beyond this require custom Concierge pricing
  • AI copywriting and advanced optimisation features not explicitly detailed in lower tiers
  • Full customisation beyond templates requires adding custom JavaScript, CSS and HTML
  • FIPS 140-2 or advanced security features not documented as available
