Most tool regret comes from buying too early or for the wrong job. Here are the practical signals that it's time to add Zigpoll — whose job in an ecommerce stack is post-purchase attribution — knowing which channel drove the sale.
Signal 1: the job is being done manually
If someone on the team is doing this by hand every week, the subscription usually pays for itself in hours saved.
Signal 2: the gap is costing measurable money
Lost carts, missed enquiries, slow pages, unpaid-for clicks — when you can point at a number, it's time.
Signal 3: you've outgrown the free workaround
Spreadsheets, inbox folders and manual exports all work until volume breaks them. Breakage is the signal.
When NOT to buy yet
If none of the three signals is true, bookmark it and move on — a tool without a job is overhead. Start with our getting-started walkthrough when a signal fires.
