The short version

  • Only Hiveage has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Hiveage free plan caps at 5 clients; scaling past 1,000 clients on the $42/month Plus tier requires contacting sales for a custom plan; RFPIO pricing not publicly disclosed; three tiers (Emerging, Growth, Enterprise) but no published costs
