Two tools side by side, point by point.
Pricing page, terms, privacy policy and help pages. Whatever is not stated there, we call unknown.
Our verdict, integrations, free trial, a public price and the Netherlands check all count. What a tool pays us does not.
A tool gets a badge if the point is true. There is no opinion in it.
The badges from the Netherlands check
New tools, price changes and Netherlands check updates. One email a week, in Dutch, with no sponsored emails.
158 of the 262 tools have their headquarters outside the Netherlands.
Yes. We get a fee if you take out a subscription through us. That does not change our verdict. A higher place in the list, a higher verdict or a badge is not for sale. Makers can book a sponsored spot; it always carries the label Sponsored.
Because a lot of good software does not come from the Netherlands. We explain every tool for businesses here. Every tool also has a Netherlands check, so you can see whether there is Dutch support, whether your customers can pay with iDEAL and where your data is stored.
With an overall score. It includes our verdict, the Netherlands check, the number of integrations, free trial and a public price. What a tool pays us does not count.
From the vendor's website. Every tool shows when we checked it.
That we could not verify it on the vendor's website. An unknown point gives no badge.
