For general features, we considered these to be elements that the software should offer and we weighted them by whether they were part of the paid plan or were available as an add-on. We broke features down into two separate categories: general features and additional features.

Pricing accounted for 10% of our weighted scoring.

Those that had pricing that we considered to be in the affordable or moderate range fared better in our rankings while companies that offer upfront pricing received higher ratings than those that did not disclose it immediately.

After assigning a weighted score to each category, we formulated rankings for each company.
