Before you buy
- Price the plan that has the features you need, not the entry plan; permissions, proof of play, SSO and apps are usually higher tiers.
- Check what happens to the free tier when you add a screen, and whether a trial replaces it for new accounts.
- Confirm the player list against the hardware you own.
- Run your two finalists on a real screen for a week before migrating content.
