Funnel.io
Not possible at all; the platform doesn’t support a 15-min refresh. Also, premium sources (like DV360) are available only on the Enterprise plan.
starKey benefit

Get near-real-time, multi-destination ELT at startup-level pricing with no premium connector lock-ins or enterprise upsells.

What customers say about their switch from Funnel.io to Windsor:

01

Premium connectors

Many Funnel’s sources and destinations are locked to higher tiers. You pay $500+/month just to access specific platforms you need.

02

Costs climb as you grow

Costs scale fast as you add users, sources, or destinations; bills become hard to afford for growing teams.

03

Shallow field coverage

Available metrics/dimensions can be narrow, making deep segmentation, goal tracking, or conversion timing hard.

04

Lack of AI insights

With no MCP server, Funnel.io doesn’t let you send data to LLMs for more comprehensive analytics and auto-generated visual summaries.

05

Steep learning curve

Blending multiple sources, creating custom metrics, and mastering data mapping takes training. This complex onboarding slows time-to-value.
