Gotchas - check before you buy

Accuracy drops without an RTK drone or AeroPoints ground control.

Guess: pricing is quote-based and annual; expect enterprise contracts, not monthly self-serve seats.

low

Unrelated Propeller products on G2 pollute review searches; verify listings before trusting ratings.

Comparisons list many rivals; test DroneDeploy or Pix4D against your workflow first.
