VWO 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.

Free tierWhat drives the bill
The metric that actually scales your invoice.
Priced by monthly tracked users across modules, so buying testing plus insights raises the total substantially. The Wingify rebrand has moved pricing behind Growth/Pro/Enterprise tiers without published figures — get a quote rather than relying on an old VWO list price.
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.

Limitations
- Module-based pricing means the useful configuration costs much more than the headline.
- Client-side flicker on complex single-page applications.

- Limited targeting sophistication compared to LaunchDarkly.
- Small vendor.
