Pick Disco if
- Fits if you run live cohorts for professionals and want a community around them

- Tight if you pass 250 active members, since more needs Scale, from $999 a month billed yearly
- Skip it if you want PayPal, as payments run only through Stripe, at Stripe's own rates
- Watch out: the API, webhooks, SAML SSO and a branded mobile app all need Scale
- Watch out: the trial is just 7 days, short for building out an academy before you pay
Pick Teachfloor if

- Works for a small academy under 50 learners
Look elsewhere if

- Watch out: Stripe's 2.9% + $0.30 applies to course sales
- Skip it if you want the trial length known, as the page does not state it

More comparisons
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.
