Where each one falls short

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

Geckoboard

  • Annual billing required; monthly billing not offered
  • Add-on dashboards cost $24 each
  • Additional editors cost $20 each
  • Additional screens cost $20 each

Reportz

  • The connector library is smaller than the established agency reporting tools, and if a platform you report on is missing there is no practical route to getting it added.
  • Four Dots is a small agency-owned business rather than a funded software company, so API breakages and platform changes can take longer to fix than at larger vendors.
  • There is no data modelling, SQL or warehouse layer, so cross-source analysis is limited to what the widget set already supports.
  • Per-dashboard billing means an agency that builds several views per client loses the headline price advantage quickly.
  • Documentation and support are thin compared with larger competitors, and complex setups often need direct email support rather than self-service answers.
