Possible disadvantages

• Limited Market Presence
  As a newer or niche tool, Guidey may have a smaller user base and community compared to more established competitors, potentially limiting available resources and third-party integrations.
• Learning Curve for Advanced Features
  While basic setup may be easy, mastering more advanced customization or scripting capabilities could require additional time and effort.
• Pricing Concerns
  Depending on the pricing model, costs could scale significantly with increased usage or team size, which might not be ideal for smaller businesses or startups.
• Dependency on Third-Party Service
  Relying on an external tool for critical onboarding functionality introduces a dependency that could be affected by service outages or changes in the provider's roadmap.
• Potential Limited Documentation
  As a smaller or newer product, documentation and community support resources may be less comprehensive compared to more mature alternatives in the market.
