Where each one falls short

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

Google Maps Platform

  • Free allowances are per service rather than pooled, at 10,000 events a month for dynamic maps, geocoding and autocomplete
  • Dynamic Maps cost $7.00 per 1,000 calls at the entry tier
  • Geocoding and the Directions API both cost $5.00 per 1,000 calls at the entry tier
  • Pricing is tiered by volume, so the effective unit price depends on total monthly usage and is hard to predict in advance
  • Billing is usage based with no flat plan, so a traffic spike is a cost spike

INTTRA

  • INTTRA's own homepage as captured by the Internet Archive on 18 January 2022 confirms it operates under E2open with a 'Learn About E2open' link on its own navigation, and pricing remains bare contact-sales with no named editions; a customer testimonial quoted on the same page (not INTTRA's own pricing) cites Bill of Lading fee savings of $25 to $75 per shipment from consolidating onto the platform
