Samuele gg (ID: 000000b00bfe818f) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 03/23/2022 • Nessuna demo dimostrativa senza registrazione o l'estensione non funziona; la scansione dei risultati è lenta. • Per il piano gratuito richiede registrazione chiedendo cognome e descrizione business obbligatoria. • Il piano gratuito permette solo 50 check al mese • Piani a pagamento a caro prezzo. ____________________________________________ • No demo demo without registration or the extension doesn't work; scanning of results is slow. • For the free plan requires registration by asking for surname and mandatory business description. • The free plan allows only 50 checks per month • Expensive paid plans.
