gecis.in vs Bitly
Every row of the matrix, including the ones where Bitly is the better answer. A competitor cell is filled in only once it carries a source and the date we read it.
A dashed cell is one we could not confirm from the vendor’s own pages — some of them publish their pricing and legal pages as JavaScript only, and a page we cannot read is not a page we can quote. We leave the gap rather than fill it from a review site.
