The short version

  • Only Tines has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: HighLevel starter plan is limited to a single sub-account, so agencies must upgrade to the $297/month Unlimited plan to manage multiple clients; Tines no-code, UI-driven approach is restrictive for complex logic and version control integration with SDLC

Yes, Tines is purpose-built for security automation. Teams needing non-security automation on the same orchestration layer would need to evaluate alternatives.

Source
Tines: Does Tines have native log intelligence capabilities?

No, Tines lacks a native log intelligence layer, meaning it cannot determine whether the data feeding your detection tools is complete. Teams must build automation against whatever alerts their existing infrastructure provides.
