What to consider when making your choice

Every buying decision is contextual. A startup with 5 people has fundamentally different needs than an enterprise with 500. Here are the dimensions we recommend prioritizing based on team size:

  • Small teams (1-20): Prioritize ease of use and value for money. You need speed, not features you'll never use.
  • Growing teams (20-100): Focus on integrations and feature depth. You're building workflows now that will scale.
  • Enterprise (100+): Reliability, support quality, and vendor transparency become critical. Downtime costs money.

Methodology note
