Before you choose
Check the pricing path
Look for a free plan, a free trial or a paid plan with published entry pricing. Hightouch lists a free plan. RudderStack Customer Data Platform offers free access, a paid option starting at $265 per month and a 30-day trial.
Some vendors list pricing on request. Manago AI, BlueConic, Celebrus, Piano DMP and Selligent use that model in the supplied details.
Match the data work
Assess the entries for real-time profiles, identity resolution, audience activation and data ingestion. These fields show how the platforms describe core customer-data work in the comparison.
Before committing, examine both source and destination connector coverage. Connector coverage can affect how data enters a platform and where audiences or profiles can go.
Confirm where it runs
Match your stack to the listed environments, including web, API, iOS, Android, self-hosted and extension. Zeta CDP and Piano DMP show web, API, iOS and Android; Celebrus lists those plus self-hosted.
Review access and licensing
If you need to inspect or change the code, check whether the product is open source. The list marks open-source status separately from pricing and trial access.
Treat free plans and free trials as separate access routes. Confirm which path a vendor offers and what paid access starts after the free route.
