• EU hosting and GDPR posture simplify European procurement.
• Good balance between marketer-friendly editing and server-side flags.
• Strong support reputation in European markets.

• Self-hosting removes per-user-volume pricing entirely.
• Both Bayesian and frequentist engines with sequential testing support.

• Less well known outside Europe, with a smaller partner ecosystem.
• Quote-based pricing with no self-serve entry.
• Statistics engine is less differentiated than the warehouse-native platforms.

• Requires a working data warehouse and someone who can define metrics in SQL.
• Self-hosting is operational work you own.
• Less polished governance and approval tooling than LaunchDarkly.
