Strengths and watch-outs

Strengths
  • UK data hosting and UK support hours
  • Simple GDPR posture, useful for public-sector and regulated buyers
  • Good value across three functions
Watch-outs
  • Limited customisation and automation
  • Small ecosystem
  • Ownership has changed - check roadmap commitments
11

Bottom line for an SME

Worth shortlisting where UK data residency and simplicity matter more than sophistication. Ask directly about the product roadmap.
