Each one is a row of the table below, with its source.
Your whole team, on every plan
Sim's Pro plan is $25 per user a month, and its Free plan has no teammates. Every Lodol plan, Free included, has unlimited seats, so adding a colleague never changes the bill.
1,455 apps to work with
Sim connects to 270+ apps. Lodol connects to 1,455, from Slack and Gmail to QuickBooks and Salesforce, and an HTTP step reaches any app with an API.
Single sign-on without Enterprise
On Sim, single sign-on comes with Enterprise. Lodol's Pro plan includes single sign-on and SCIM, from $120 a month.
