How to read these reviews
Each review answers the same questions in the same order: what the tool costs, what it costs for 5 and 10 channels, which of 10 key features it has, which networks it lists, its pros and cons, and who should look elsewhere. That makes it easy to put 2 reviews side by side.
"Not confirmed" means the tool's own pages did not say. It does not mean the feature is missing. Prices change often, so check the date on each review and the tool's own pricing page before you buy.
