Kameleoon vs ConfigCat
Feature checklists rarely decide anything. What decides it is the pricing metric, who has to write the tests, and which limitation you can live with.
Entry price
From $495 per month (PBX Starter: 10 experiments, 50k tested visitors)
Trial onlyFrom $110 per month (Pro)
Free tierWhat drives the bill
The metric that actually scales your invoice.
Kameleoon now publishes an entry price. Above Starter it is priced by traffic and modules on a custom quote.
Plans run Free, Pro $110, Smart $325, Enterprise $900 and Dedicated $4,500 a month. Unlimited seats and unlimited flag reads on every plan, including free — unusual and genuinely valuable for wide access; paid tiers mainly raise flag, environment and product limits.
Free tier
30-day trial, no card, up to 3 experiments.
Free forever plan with a monthly config-request allowance and unlimited members.

Strengths
