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

How much does Databox cost in 2026?

As of August 2026 Databox publishes a free plan with 3 data sources and 1 user, then three paid tiers on annual billing: Analyst at $64 per month (5 data sources, 1 user), Pro at $159 (unlimited users, 3 sources included), and Growth at $399 (unlimited users), with a Custom tier above that. Monthly billing is roughly 20 percent higher, so Pro is $199 and Growth is $499. Extra data sources on the paid tiers cost about $5.60 each per month annually. There is also a 14-day free trial of Growth with no credit card required, which is the sensible way to test whether the boards you need are realistic to build.

The detail that decides most bills is the source count rather than the tier. Pro includes only 3 data sources despite costing $159, so an agency connecting Google Ads, Meta, TikTok, GA4, Search Console, Shopify, and Klaviyo for one client is already paying for four extras. We put every reporting tool side by side on published numbers in our marketing reporting software pricing comparison.

The number to watch is data sources. If you connect Google Ads, Meta, TikTok, GA4, Shopify, and Stripe, that is six sources before you add a CRM, so the source-based add-ons and tier limits are where the real bill is set, not the headline price.

One further detail matters if you are an agency, and it is not on the plan cards. Re-reading the Databox pricing page in August 2026, white-labeling is listed as an add-on on Free, Analyst, Pro and Growth alike, and is included only on the quote-only Custom plan. So a $399 a month Growth subscription still does not give you a branded client deliverable without a further fee that Databox does not publish. Advanced security including SSO, and priority support, are add-ons on every published tier too. At three connected sources per client, ten clients works out at about $310 a month on Pro before any of that is added. We priced the alternatives that do include white label in Raven Tools competitors.

Does Databox show blended ROAS?

Not as a finished metric. Databox gives you calculated metrics and metric builders, so you can construct a blended ROAS by combining spend from several ad sources against a revenue source. It is capable, but it is a board you design and maintain, and it recomputes only the way you set it up.

MixedMetrics computes blended ROAS, blended CAC, MER, and LTV automatically across every connected channel and reconciles them to real revenue from your store and billing. If you want the logic behind the metric, our guide to blended ROAS versus platform ROAS walks through why in-platform ROAS overstates itself.

Is there a cheaper Databox alternative?

On sticker price, Looker Studio is free and Databox has its own free tier, so both are cheaper than most paid tools if you are willing to build and maintain the boards. The saving is real only if your time is free.

The more honest comparison is price per outcome. If the outcome is a wide company KPI board, Databox earns its place. If the outcome is knowing whether last month's ad spend produced profitable customers, a flat-rate blended dashboard answers that directly and does not scale its price with the number of data sources you connect.
