| Pricing | Not published — vendor pricing page contains no figures; G2's vendor-supplied table lists a $2,200/month Platform edition but is self-dated October 10, 2024 · free tier: No free trial; a free interactive product demo (live-demo.hockeystack.com) is a simulation, not a trial on your own data | Growth: pay-as-you-go at $0.07 per conversion after the 12K first-year Welcome Package · free tier: Zero plan is free: Welcome Package with 12K free conversions for the first year, core marketing analytics, 30 days of access to select premium add-ons; self-serve signup. Vendor states it is 'not suitable for apps with paid activities'. A separate free Deep Linking Zero tier covers short links and QR routing on owned media. |
| Pricing model | Custom | Usage-based (per-conversion) with free tier and custom enterprise plans |
| Best for | Mid-market and enterprise B2B software or IT companies with material paid spend, a clean Salesforce or HubSpot instance, and a named marketing-ops/revenue-ops owner who can drive a technically demanding attribution implementation. | Mid-market and enterprise app businesses running multi-channel paid acquisition across Meta, Google, TikTok and affiliate networks, with in-house analytics maturity to instrument events correctly — especially gaming, finance and eCommerce apps facing SKAN complexity or fraud exposure, and owned-media teams that want the deep-linking track alone. |
| Avoid if | You have no in-house attribution or analytics owner, a small or early-stage budget, messy non-standard source systems, or you need to compare published prices and trial on your own data before committing. | You have little or no paid spend, a tight budget with high conversion volume (per-conversion billing punishes growth), no dedicated analyst to own instrumentation, a requirement for published fixed pricing before engaging sales, or a need for a short cancel-anytime commitment. |

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.
