COMPARE // DATABOX

Databox alternative with blended ROAS, CAC, and MER built in

Databox is a broad KPI dashboard builder. It connects to 100-plus data sources, from ad platforms and GA4 to CRMs, help desks, and spreadsheets, and lets you assemble boards, set goals, build scorecards, and push metric snapshots to Slack. If you want one place to watch any business metric and you are happy to design the boards yourself, it is flexible and well built, with a free plan (3 data sources, 1 user) and paid plans that, on annual billing in 2026, run $64 per month for Analyst, $159 for Pro, and $399 for Growth.

MixedMetrics is narrower on purpose. It does not ask you to build a board; it arrives with the cross-channel marketing math already done. Connect read-only to GA4, Google Ads, Meta Ads, TikTok Ads, Search Console, Shopify, Stripe, and Klaviyo or HubSpot, and you get blended ROAS, blended CAC, MER, LTV, and revenue by channel in one live view, plus an AI layer that flags what changed and where spend is leaking. Where Databox is a canvas for any KPI, MixedMetrics is the finished answer for whether your marketing is profitable.
