About CompareStacks

CompareStacks publishes decision-first software comparisons: pricing behavior, constraints, and trade-offs that matter once you’re actually using a product.

What CompareStacks Does

Most software pages tell you features. We try to tell you what changes the decision: when pricing cliffs appear, which limits trigger upgrades, what fails first in production, and the trade-offs that affect long-term fit.

Our goal is simple: help you choose with fewer surprises.

  • Decision briefs, not star ratings
  • Constraints and trade-offs, not marketing claims
  • Pricing behavior, not promotional pricing

How We Build Pages

We use vendor documentation, public pricing pages, and other primary sources when available. If something is unclear or vendor-controlled, we say so.

When we learn something is outdated, we update the page after we can verify the change.

  • We prefer sources you can independently verify
  • We call out uncertainty instead of guessing
  • We welcome corrections and source links

Independence & How We Make Money

CompareStacks is an independent publisher. We do not accept compensation for rankings or placement.

We do not use affiliate links. When we monetize, it’s through display advertising (for example, Google AdSense). Ads do not influence what we write or how we rank.

  • No affiliate links
  • No sponsored rankings
  • No paid placement

Corrections

If you spot an error or have a source that updates pricing, limits, or availability, email us. We prioritize factual corrections and linkable sources.
