| Pricing | $39/month for 1–2,500 people · free tier: None — 14-day trial, no credit card required; unlimited emails not available during trial and account goes inactive on expiry, pausing active forms and campaigns | Not published · free tier: Not confirmed — a free trial is offered via a 'Try Braze for free' link; the pricing-page FAQ 'Does Braze offer a free plan?' is unanswered, so no free-forever plan is verified |
| Pricing model | Subscription | Custom (MAU-based licence plus consumption-based Action Credits) |
| Best for | Small-to-mid Shopify, Shopify Plus, WooCommerce or BigCommerce stores with roughly 2,500–25,000 contacts wanting real behavioural automation and segmentation without enterprise pricing — especially migrating off Mailchimp — and agencies needing unlimited sub-accounts at the base price. | Mid-market to enterprise consumer brands with a mobile app or high-traffic web property, real MAU volume, an existing BI stack to offset reporting gaps, and at least one engineer supporting the marketing team. |
| Avoid if | You are a B2B or non-ecommerce marketer needing CRM and lead-scoring features, a high-volume sender with a large list who needs predictable cost at scale, a team that needs SMS as a first-class channel, a buyer under 2,500 contacts hunting a free tier, or an organisation requiring guaranteed real-time support at low spend. | You are a small business, email-only or B2B lead-nurture team, need published self-serve pricing, need deep native analytics without a BI layer, or need results inside a quarter. |

A higher TOP SCORE means more of the evidence favours that platform on this methodology — it is not a recommendation, and it does not account for your specific requirements. Advertisers are never declared the winner of a comparison.
