Pacing Console / Ranked

TrueClicks pricing, and the best TrueClicks alternatives for budget pacing and PPC management

By the PlanConversion Strategy Team.

The short answer

TrueClicks is free up to $50K a month of ad spend, then priced by spend: $249 a month at $100K, $549 at $500K, $899 at $1M and $4,999 at $10M, with two months free on yearly billing and a custom quote above $10M. If you outgrow the free tier and mainly use TrueClicks for budgets, Pacing Console paces every Google Ads, Microsoft Ads and LinkedIn Ads campaign against its plan every day at $49 USD per workspace a month after a free first month, whatever you spend. For a full PPC suite, Optmyzr (from $209 a month) and Adalysis (from $149) add budget automation; Opteo (from $129) suits smaller Google Ads accounts; Adzooma has a free plan; Shape suits agencies.

We make Pacing Console, so read the ranking with that in mind.

How we ranked

We ranked tools by how well they replace what teams use TrueClicks for, auditing, monitoring and budget pacing on Google Ads and Microsoft Ads, and by what they cost once spend passes TrueClicks’ $50K free cap. Tools priced by ad spend are compared at the same spend where their pages allow it.

Teams that rely on TrueClicks’ audits and optimization checks should look at Optmyzr and Adalysis first; Pacing Console has no audits. We list Pacing Console first for teams whose main use is keeping budgets on plan, because its price does not rise with spend.

Every fact about another tool comes from its own public pricing, product or help pages, checked on November 14, 2026, and listed under Sources. Prices are in USD as published that day; where a vendor publishes no price, we say so. PlanConversion makes Pacing Console, so we are not neutral: we say where other tools are the better pick.
