The short version

  • Only Dock has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Dock the free plan excludes Salesforce and HubSpot integration, which is the capability that turns Dock from a nicer file share into a sales tool, so the free tier does not let you evaluate the thing you would actually buy.; EverAfter base acquired EverAfter on 21 January 2026 and is merging it into a combined engagement platform, so the standalone product roadmap is now subordinate to that integration and renewal packaging is likely to change; get post-integration terms in writing before signing multi-year.
  • They diverge on capability: Dock covers Digital sales rooms, EverAfter covers Customer-facing hubs.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

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

Dock

  • The free plan excludes Salesforce and HubSpot integration, which is the capability that turns Dock from a nicer file share into a sales tool, so the free tier does not let you evaluate the thing you would actually buy.
  • Branding and layout customisation is the most common complaint from users; teams with strict design standards find workspaces they cannot make match the rest of their buyer-facing material.
  • Workspaces render poorly on mobile, which matters because executive stakeholders in a buying committee frequently open a shared link on a phone first and form their impression there.
  • Premium requires annual billing at 1,000 US dollars a month, so the step from Standard is a twelve-thousand dollar commitment rather than an incremental monthly upgrade, and it is triggered by asset limits as often as by seat count.
  • The HubSpot integration is reported as noticeably weaker than the Salesforce one, so HubSpot-based teams get less of the CRM automation that justifies the paid tiers.

EverAfter

  • Base acquired EverAfter on 21 January 2026 and is merging it into a combined engagement platform, so the standalone product roadmap is now subordinate to that integration and renewal packaging is likely to change; get post-integration terms in writing before signing multi-year.
  • EverAfter is an experience layer over data you already hold, so an organisation without Salesforce, HubSpot or a customer success platform feeding it gets very little standalone value and must solve its data problem first.
  • Pricing is not published and third-party transaction data shows an extremely wide range, roughly 9,000 to 125,000 USD a year, which means the quote you receive depends heavily on negotiation rather than on a published rate card.
  • A customer-facing portal only works if customers log into it, and adoption on the customer side is outside your control, so hubs frequently become a well-designed artefact that the CSM still has to chase by email anyway.
  • Building and maintaining differentiated hub templates per segment is genuine ongoing operations work, and teams that bought it to reduce CSM workload often find they have shifted effort to a CS operations person rather than removed it.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Dock: Do buyers and clients need a licence?

No. External collaborators are free on every plan, including Free.

EverAfter: Who owns EverAfter?

Base acquired EverAfter on 21 January 2026. Both companies stated existing customers continue to be supported while the products are integrated.

Dock: Is Dock useful without a CRM integration?

Much less so, and the free plan has none. Budget for Standard if you want activity flowing back to Salesforce or HubSpot.

EverAfter: Does it replace Gainsight or Totango?

No. It is a customer-facing layer that reads from an internal customer success platform or CRM, so most buyers run it alongside one rather than instead of one.

Dock: Can it handle post-sale onboarding as well as deals?

Yes, that is one of its stronger arguments: the same workspace carries from deal to implementation without rebuilding it.

EverAfter: What does it cost?

Pricing is not published. Third-party transaction data places annual contracts roughly between 9,000 and 125,000 USD depending on scale and scope.

Dock: Is pricing per seat?

Partly. Plans bundle a user count and additional seats are 50 US dollars a month each on top.

EverAfter: Do I need engineers to build the portals?

No. The studio is designed for a non-technical CS operations person to assemble widgets and templates, which is its main practical advantage.
