Where each one falls short

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

Splashtop

  • Solo plan is $72 per year for a single user; Pro and Performance are priced per user per year on top at $99 and $149
  • Remote Support SOS plan starts at $259 to $399 per concurrent user per year, separate from the remote access plans

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
