Ranking policy

We do not rank tools by quality yet

Every list here is ordered by something you can see and check, never by a hidden score.

How lists are ordered

  • Name, A to Z is the default everywhere.
  • Lowest starting price sorts by the cheapest paid monthly plan we recorded. Tools with no recorded paid price come last.
  • Free plan first puts tools with a free plan above the rest.
  • "Find your fit" sorts matches by the same starting price and lists which tools it left out and why.

Why there is no "best" list

Calling a tool the best needs hands-on testing against a stated method. We have not done that. Until we do, and publish the method and results, we will not show a quality rank, star rating or score. Each row says "Not tested by us".

What would change this

If we add tested rankings later, they will have their own page with the method, the test date and the results, and they will be kept apart from the price data.
