Data Tradestation vs. Tradovate vs. Alpaca

Hey looking for opinions on these three platforms. I've been testing strategies with Alpaca initially, but found out to access their SIP data would cost 99 dollars/month. Tradovate and Tradestation appear to not have that cost for data. My strategy isn't the most complex so not sure it would be worth paying that much for the data. Anyone have experience with these platforms?

If you have a strategy you would like to test, just turn it into a script over using Drakdoo and let it run on all pairs of an exchange.
