Which one is for you
Pick Appfigures if
- Fits if you want every store's sales, downloads and payouts for up to 5 apps in one free dashboard
- Works for small teams tracking about 100 keywords who also want unlimited review replies
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you want the $7.99 plan for keywords, as tracking starts at Monitor, $35.99 a month
- Pricey if you want competitors' downloads and revenue, which start at Boost, $449.99 a month billed annually
- Tight if you have more than 5 apps, as each extra one costs $1.99 while it's active
- Watch out: hourly keyword updates and competitors' keywords start at Optimize, $119.99 a month
- Watch out: Connect caps review replies at 150, and wider market and SDK research are separate plans
Pick AsoBeast if
- Fits if you track up to 5 apps on both stores and want to pay $10 a month
- Makes sense if you'd rather run your ASO tool on your own server with Docker
Look elsewhere if
- Not for you if you want a free hosted plan, as the hosted service is paid after the 7-day trial
- Pricey if you outgrow Indie, since the next plan, Ultimate, jumps to $99 a month
- Watch out: a keyword market is one keyword in one country, so 1,000 markets is 200 phrases in five countries
- Watch out: there's no uptime guarantee or service level agreement
- Watch out: payment goes through Link and shows on card statements as LINK.COM* ASOBEAST

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
