Where each one falls short

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

Krisp

  • Accent conversion is metered daily rather than monthly, at 1 hour a day on Core and 4 on Advanced
  • There is no free tier, only a 7 day trial
  • Manager view, Salesforce integration and advanced admin controls require the Advanced plan at $30 per user per month
  • SSO, SCIM, HIPAA compliance and on device transcription are Enterprise only
  • The advertised $8 and $15 rates require annual billing, doubling to $16 and $30 monthly

Zapier

  • The free plan allows 100 tasks per month and only two-step Zaps, one trigger and one action
  • Multi-step Zaps, filters, paths, webhooks and the formatter all require a paid plan
  • Premium app connectors are withheld from the free plan
  • Free Zaps poll for new data every 15 minutes against 2 minutes on Professional and 1 minute on Team
  • Paying monthly rather than annually costs 50 percent more, so the 2,000-task Professional plan is $73.50 a month instead of $49
