Where each one falls short

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

ClickMagick

  • The entry Starter plan is $79 a month and tracks 10,000 visitors
  • Additional sites or stores are $40 a month each and are not available on Starter at all
  • Visitor allowances jump by a factor of ten between tiers, at 10,000, 100,000 and 1,000,000, so a site between two tiers pays for the higher one
  • No overage rate is published, so exceeding an allowance has no stated cost
  • The lower advertised rates require paying a year up front

Staffbase

  • Staffbase publishes no price list at all and states directly that it does not publish prices
  • Every route to a number is a sales conversation; the vendor says most customers receive a tailored proposal 3 to 5 business days after a first call
  • Pricing is shaped by workforce composition, so the desk-worker to frontline mix determines the rate rather than a published per-seat figure
  • Frontline employees are licensed on a separate reduced tier with a narrower capability set than desk workers
  • Multi-brand and multi-region enterprise configurations are scoped and priced individually
  • The vendor cites a typical 90 days from signed contract to a fully branded launch
  • Intranet, email and digital signage are separate channels added on top of the employee app rather than one bundled product
