Free plan: Trackli / Everflow

Everflow supports a wide range of tracking methods including pixel tracking, server postbacks, and API integrations. It connects with ad networks, demand-side platforms, and major ecommerce platforms but requires API work for Stripe integration.

What is Everflow?

Best suited for

Performance marketing agencies managing multiple client accounts, large affiliate networks with thousands of publishers, or brands with $10K+/mo marketing budgets.

May not be right for

SaaS startups, indie hackers, bootstrapped companies, or anyone who doesn't need network-level tracking and analytics capabilities.

Where Everflow shines

  • Enterprise-grade fraud prevention system that detects and blocks bot traffic, click fraud, and attribution manipulation
  • Advanced multi-channel tracking with support for direct linking, impression tracking, and server-to-server postbacks
  • Powerful reporting engine with real-time analytics, custom dimensions, and drill-down capabilities for performance marketers

Where startups struggle with Everflow

  • Quote-only pricing and a six-month minimum commitment make it difficult for small teams to evaluate

  • Steep learning curve with dozens of configuration options that require dedicated training to use effectively

Frequently asked questions

Why is Everflow so much more expensive than Trackli?
Everflow uses quote-only pricing with a six-month minimum commitment and is built for affiliate networks and agencies managing multiple clients with millions of clicks per month. Its feature set includes network-level tracking, advanced fraud detection, and multi-client management. SaaS companies running their own affiliate program often don't need these capabilities or the long commitment.
Does Everflow's fraud prevention justify its price for SaaS companies?
Everflow has excellent fraud prevention, but it's designed for the scale of ad networks processing millions of clicks. Trackli includes duplicate-event deduplication to keep commission records accurate — appropriate for SaaS affiliate programs — without the enterprise price tag.
Can Everflow track SaaS subscription commissions like Trackli?
Everflow can track subscription commissions through its API, but it's not purpose-built for SaaS billing integration. Trackli connects natively to Stripe and Paddle, automatically tracking subscription events, recurring commissions, upgrades, and cancellations without custom development.
Is Everflow worth considering if I manage affiliates for multiple SaaS products?
If you're an agency managing affiliate programs for multiple clients, Everflow's multi-tenant architecture makes sense. If you're a SaaS company managing affiliates for your own products, Trackli's focused approach is more cost-effective and easier to manage.
How difficult is it to migrate from Everflow to Trackli?
Migrating from Everflow involves exporting your affiliate and conversion data and re-establishing tracking with Trackli's simpler setup. Most teams complete the migration in a day by manually re-adding affiliates and reconnecting their payment processor webhooks.
