What the pricing really means
At first glance, MyCase looks cheaper at $39/month vs $65/month. But sticker price is only part of the story. Look at what is included on the base plan, how many users you get, and whether you need add-ons to get the features you actually need. The $99/month plan that requires $200 in add-ons is actually more expensive than the $250/month plan that includes everything.
Where MyCase wins
- Built-in client texting on the Pro plan, which most competitors charge extra for or don't offer at all
- Client portal is one of the best in the category — clients can view case updates, upload documents, and pay invoices
- Starting at $39/user/month, it's noticeably cheaper than Clio for basic case management needs
- 10-day free trial to actually test it with real data before committing
Where Rocket Matter wins
- LEDES billing support out of the box, which is essential if you bill corporate clients or insurance companies that require it
- 15-day free trial is one of the longest in the category
- Billing reports are detailed enough to spot underperforming attorneys or matters that are bleeding money
- Now owned by the same company as CosmoLex, so integrations between the two are tight if you need advanced accounting
Where MyCase falls short
- No court rule deadline calendaring, so you'll need a separate tool or manual tracking for jurisdiction-specific deadlines
- Storage is capped at 2 GB per user on the Basic plan, which fills up fast with litigation documents
- Reporting is basic until you hit the Advanced plan at $89/user
- Fewer third-party integrations than Clio — about 70 vs Clio's 250+
Where Rocket Matter falls short
- No built-in intake forms or eSignature — you'll need separate tools for client onboarding
- No court rule deadline calendaring
- Interface feels dated compared to newer tools like Clio or PracticePanther
- At $65/user it's not the cheapest option, and the Premier plan at $95 is needed for document automation
