Our 0–5 stars are editorial assessments for a stated use case, not an average of customer reviews. Documentation reviews weigh fit (40%), workflow (25%), cost transparency (20%) and control (15%). Separately communicated editorial overall assessments show their basis and date in the profile. We regularly update our lists; scores expire after 90 days without a new review.
