• Extremely reliable flag delivery with offline fallbacks — this is infrastructure you can trust in the request path.
• Best-in-class governance: approval workflows, audit logs, role-based access.
• Code references and stale-flag detection actually help you remove dead flags.

• Genuinely good hybrid model — the same experiment can run client- and server-side.
• Effective anti-flicker implementation.
• EU hosting with healthcare-grade compliance options.

• The most expensive option in the category by a distance.
• Experimentation is competent but less sophisticated than dedicated statistics platforms.
• No meaningful free tier for evaluation.

• Smaller market presence outside Europe.
• Opaque pricing.
• Fewer third-party integrations than Optimizely.
