Salesforce new editions
Salesforce now lists three new editions: Core at $195, Advanced at $395 and Max at $550 per user per month. They replace Enterprise, Unlimited and Agentforce 1. Salesforce gives no start date and no earlier price for Enterprise or Unlimited, so this page states none. Ten alternatives follow, ranked by how much of Salesforce each one covers.
Duels
Mailchimp vs Brevo
The main difference is what each tool bills. Mailchimp charges for the number of contacts stored, Brevo for the number of emails sent each month. For a list of 25,000 contacts that receives four emails a month, Brevo Standard costs $139/mo and Mailchimp Standard $310/mo, both billed monthly. The gap closes when the same list is mailed more often: at 12 emails per contact a month, the two plans cost about the same.

How we rank alternatives
The alternatives are ranked by how closely each one does what the original product does. The ranking is calculated, not chosen.
For each product, the site lists 15 to 24 things the product does, read in its official documentation. A function that people choose the product for counts three times. A common one counts twice and a secondary one once. Each alternative is then checked on every function, on its own vendor's pages. It gets a full point when it does the same thing, half a point when it does it partly, and nothing when the function is absent. A function that could not be verified also gets nothing.
The result is a percentage, and the highest percentage is rank 01. An alternative that does everything on the list reaches 100%. At least 12 tools are checked for a page, and the ten highest are kept. Price is shown next to each tool and does not change the percentage. It only breaks a tie. When two tools have the same percentage, the one whose first paid plan is closer in price to the original's comes first. Labels such as Cheapest, Open source (the code is public) or European point out what sets a tool apart. They never change its rank either. A vendor can pay for a sponsored placement (a paid spot on a page). It is marked as sponsored, and the tool keeps the rank the calculation gave it.
The percentage measures resemblance, not quality, reliability or support. A very different tool can be the better choice. Prices are read on vendor pages and read again every 30 days. The functions are checked again every 180 days.
