Where each one falls short

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

DashThis

Dashboards are the billing unit, so an agency that gives each client a summary and a channel detail view consumes its allowance at twice the expected rate and upgrades jump by roughly a hundred dollars a step
There is no data warehouse, SQL layer or real data modelling, so anything requiring joins beyond simple multi-source widgets has to be done in another tool first
Historical data depends on what each connected API will return, so switching to DashThis does not retroactively give you years of comparable history
There is no free tier at all, and the fourteen day trial is short for an agency wanting to rebuild forty client reports before committing
Visualisation options are limited to a fixed widget set, so clients who want a specific chart type or layout often cannot get it

Git

Git is a command line tool by design; graphical workflows and hosted collaboration depend entirely on third party GUIs and hosting services layered on top, per git-scm.com/about
