Honest take

What the others do well.

HailTrace ($3–8K/yr): The established name. Deep relationships at large national contractors. Strong Android app. Worth the price if you've already built workflows around them.

Interactive Hail Maps ($1,999/yr):Solid value at their price. The data quality is real. Limitations show up in the mobile experience and integration story.

When NOT to switch to HailScout:You have a deeply entrenched workflow with one of the above and your team is resistant to change. We'd rather you stay than churn.

Try the atlas. Decide for yourself.
