|---|---|---|
| Value for money | DCore is $103.20 a month billed yearly ($129 monthly), and it's the cheapest self-serve plan. That's well above this category's middle, for one manager seat; extra seats start at $16. In fairness, 10 projects and 2,000 keywords tracked daily is a lot for the money. | CPremium is $671.04 a year, about $55.92 a month on yearly billing ($69.90 monthly), a little above this category's dearer quarter. That buys 3 projects, 25,000 pages per crawl and 300 keywords; white-label reports and team members need Professional. |
| Free plan and trial | CNo free plan, but the 14-day trial needs no card and is generous: 10 projects, 750 keywords and 20 AI prompts a day. Payments are non-refundable after that, so use the trial properly. | CA free Basic plan with no time limit: 1 project, 100 pages per crawl, 10 tracked keywords and 5 tool credits a day, and you start each crawl by hand. Fine for a tiny site, tight for a business. Paid plans have a 14-day trial too. |
| Features | BDaily rank tracking with share of voice, keyword, competitor and backlink research with no caps on either plan, audits of 250,000 pages a month, reports, listings in 100+ directories, AI answer tracking and API credits. The whole job. | CWhole-site audits with JavaScript, daily desktop rankings for Google's first two pages, 20 competitors, weekly backlink checks, uptime alerts and keyword research. Gaps: daily tracking past page two is an add-on, and AI tracking is listed as coming soon. |
| Ease of use | CNo rating on record. It's tidy, but projects, keyword lists and reports all need setting up before the tool pays off. | CNo rating on record. Projects, crawls and keyword lists all need setting up, and on the free plan there's a wait between crawls. |
