Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Genesys Cloud
- All four published tiers are billed annually
- The published rates are named user licences tied to a specific person, so a shift based operation cannot share a seat
- Concurrent user licences, which is what shift work needs, are sold at a premium above these rates
- Entry pricing is $75 per user per month, rising to $240 on the top tier
MailerLite
- Free plan caps at 250 subscribers, 2,500 monthly emails and 2 user seats
- Comfort plan is limited to 3 user seats; unlimited seats require the Power plan
- Pricing scales with subscriber count and email volume rather than a flat seat rate, and resets to the plan's subscriber ceiling each billing anniversary
- Annual billing earns only a 10% discount versus monthly, smaller than many competitors' annual discounts
