Where each one falls short

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

Gemini

  • High fees on standard web interface at 1.49% transaction plus 0.50% convenience fee, with minimum $0.99 charge on small orders

Redash

  • A basic self-hosted deployment needs a minimum of 4GB of RAM, and more RAM and CPU as background workers and API processes grow
  • The official Docker images were not updated for V10, so the documented route is to deploy a V8 instance and then upgrade it
  • Anyone not using a provided cloud image has to configure the environment variables and secrets by hand
