The short version

  • Only Leadpages has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Leadpages hTML Pub tiers (Starter to Business, $10–$49/month) limited to 5–50 pages without optimisation features; Roxhill the database is UK-centric by reviewers’ own account, with weak US, Australian and broader Asian journalist coverage, so any multi-market programme needs a second vendor and the single-vendor cost case disappears.

Where each one falls short

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

Leadpages

  • HTML Pub tiers (Starter to Business, $10–$49/month) limited to 5–50 pages without optimisation features
  • Full optimisation features (A/B testing, Smart Traffic, heatmaps) only available in Grow tier ($99/month) and above
  • AI credits vary by plan, with Starter limited to 4,000 credits (insufficient for heavy AI usage)
  • All plans include unlimited traffic, but AI credit limitations may restrict heavy use of page generation features
  • 20% savings only apply with annual billing; monthly billing charges full price

Roxhill

  • The database is UK-centric by reviewers’ own account, with weak US, Australian and broader Asian journalist coverage, so any multi-market programme needs a second vendor and the single-vendor cost case disappears.
  • Contact records go stale: reviewers report old email addresses and phone numbers, distribution bounces, and there is no self-serve verification step before you send.
  • At roughly 200,000 to 300,000 journalists it is far smaller than the million-plus figures Cision and Prowly claim, with repeated complaints about thin trade, academic and journal coverage.
  • Selling is annual only with no monthly plan and a trial functionally restricted to around two weeks, so you cannot genuinely pilot before a twelve-month commitment, which is a poor fit for project or retainer agency work.
  • Licence bands are 1, 3 and 5 seats, and extra logins, workspaces, smart folders, historical search, share of voice and the spokespeople platform are all chargeable add-ons, so a team of eight to fifteen pays well above any headline band.
  • Search behaviour is described as counter-intuitive and sometimes returns implausibly few results, which means a null result cannot be trusted and lists need manual cross-checking.
  • Monitoring accuracy takes time to settle after switching, so coverage is missed in the first weeks after a cutover, which is a real gap risk if you time the migration badly.
