Shaded rows are where the two answers disagree and both listings have answered. A row where one side has not stated a fact is left plain, because silence is not a difference.
Databox
One dashboard for numbers kept in nine places
Databox pulls figures out of the tools a creator business already runs and puts them on one screen, which is a different job from measuring a website. Analytics, a payment processor, an email platform and a social scheduler can all land on the same board. Data sources are the billing unit and they are what runs the bill up. The free tier is small enough to be a demonstration rather than a workflow.
Our note
List the tools you want connected before looking at the price, because five sources sounds generous until analytics, Stripe, a mailing platform and two social accounts have used them all. The free tier is a fair way to find out whether you will actually open the dashboard, which is the real question with any reporting product.
Vidyard
Video hosting that reports who watched what
Vidyard hosts video for people who need to know what happened after the embed loaded: which viewer watched, how far they got, and what to do about it. That is a sales and marketing shape rather than an audience one, and it is the reason to choose it over a general host. For a creator it earns its place on a course page, a pitch to a sponsor, or anywhere a play is a lead rather than a view. There is a free tier with a video cap.
