BetterCloud vs GW Manager

GW Manager edges out BetterCloud on rating (4.7★ vs 4.6★), but the gap is small enough that pricing fit and feature differentiation should drive the decision more than the headline number.

On pricing, GW Manager offers a free tier (Free of charge with paid features) while BetterCloud starts at Not available. The free option meaningfully reduces evaluation cost, particularly at low usage volumes where the entry-paid tier can outpace the value delivered.

BetterCloud has the larger user base (190 reviews vs 63), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. GW Manager's smaller cohort can be an advantage for niche workflows where the bigger app has accumulated bloat.

Recommended by size: small/early-stage admins who need fast install and low risk should default to GW Manager; mid-market and enterprise admins with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — BetterCloud's 190-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than GW Manager's broader-but-shallower coverage.
