The short version
- Each has a real cost: Iterable no pricing is published on the site; the homepage routes every visitor to Book a demo or Contact Sales rather than listing plans or figures; Customer.io essentials plan caps at 5,000 profiles (people and objects) and 1,000,000 monthly emails, with overages billed at $0.12 per 1,000 emails beyond that
