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.
CGraded against other rank trackers. Basic is $49 a month for 500 keywords, about $40.83 a month on yearly billing with its two free months. That's dearer than Ranktracker's $31.20 for the same 500 daily keywords, which also brings backlinks and audits.
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.
CNo free plan, but the 7-day trial needs no card. A few free stand-alone tools sit on the site, and refunds cover 7 days on a first purchase.
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.
CDaily rankings by device and location with SERP features, 5 competitors per site, a keyword explorer, on-page checks, Google Maps tracking and PDF reports. It does rank tracking fully, but that's a smaller job, and Basic has no API or white-label.
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.
