Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Clay
- Two separate meters run at once, actions and data credits, and a plan can exhaust either independently
- Data credit overage is sold at a 30% premium over the plan rate, so exceeding the allowance costs more per unit than planning for it
- The free plan allows 500 actions, 100 data credits and 200 rows per table
- The entry paid plan starts at $167 a month, and both paid prices are starting figures rather than fixed
- The free plan cannot buy overage at all, so hitting the limit stops work rather than billing for it
LiquidPlanner
- Rebranded to Tempo Portfolio Manager; the pricing page shows no published figures, only an early access sign-up
