  • Each has a real cost: Chatwork no pricing figures or plan names are shown on the vendor's own homepage; only Sign up for free and Get Started buttons are offered, with pricing details requiring further navigation not present on the fetched page; Google Analytics data retention limited to maximum 26 months on standard properties, with automatic deletion after retention period expires
