The thing that matters most for an agency isn't flag features - it's seat pricing and account isolation, because you have many client codebases, rotating devs, and eventual handoff.\n\n**1. ConfigCat** - my default recommendation for agencies. Unlimited team members on *every* plan, including free, and pricing is based on config download volume rather than seats. That's exactly backwards from how most of this market prices, and it's the difference between $0 and hundreds a month when you want three devs plus the client's PM in each account. Free tier is 10 flags / 2 environments / 5M downloads; paid plans run $25/mo (Shared) up to $110/mo (Pro). It's a focused flag tool - no experimentation platform attached - which is usually what client projects actually need.
