The short version

  • Only Unbounce has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Talkwalker now rebranded Lumen by Talkwalker; pricing page names three tiers, Core, Analyze and Business, differentiated by non-sampled results volume (2x and 6x) and topic/filter/channel counts, but publishes no figures and directs buyers to request a custom quote; Unbounce starter tier severely limited to 5 pages and 500 monthly visitors; inadequate for most marketing campaigns
