Comparison of Accessibility Testing features of Equalweb and WAVE Web Accessibility Evaluation Tool
Equalweb is well suited to most web browsing experiences, especially desktop. If someone already has a screen reader or accessibility tools, the functionality overlap might not be ideal.
A de minimis incentive was given to thank the reviewer for their time. The incentive was not used to bias or drive a particular response, nor was the incentive contingent on a positive endorsement. More Info
This is pretty middle of the road. It does a good job of picking out some of the low-hanging fruit, but it's not going properly evaluate semantic structure and will pop several false positives. Additionally, the tools are incomplete. For instance, the contrast editor will allow you to test your colors with sliders so you can get the closest color that passes; however, that isn't how color palettes work, you generally don't get to change a companies palette without a lot of pain; furthermore, there is no ability to adjust the font-size and both font-size AND color are used to determine contrast requirements. Oh, and they use points VS pixels...nobody is using points on the web even if the ADA uses them in their fairly dated guidelines. Text from the actual contrast editor "Text is present that has a contrast ratio less than 4.5:1, or large text (larger than 18 point or 14 point bold) has a contrast ratio less than 3:1.". 14pt = 18.66 pixels, so I can see their logic even if I don't agree with it

The 2FA to login to the account only has the option for an automated call, not text message or an authentication app. This can get annoying to deal with on the long run, especially if you access the dashboard a lot.
Sometimes, the pricing tool has trouble detecting the number of pages on a site we just launched (it's still counting the pages on the old site) so the pricing choices that are presented are not accurate and I have to contact support to get the correct pricing package in place.

For this, I'm speaking specifically to the Siteimprove browser plugin. The Siteimprove plugin: Allows to filter on guideline level Catches a few more errors than WAVE Web Accessibility Evaluation Tool, but comes pretty close But, both do a great job in all other aspects WebAIM shines in its simplicity of overlaying of errors and warnings on the page. I think its real benefit is a lower learning curve on understanding how to use the tool
