Which one is for me?
You sell cigars (a shop)
Use the retailer plans. You see every other shop's price for every cigar, and exactly which of your cigars are priced above the market so you know what to reprice.
You make or distribute cigars (a brand)
Use MAP Monitor. You pick your brand and only watch your own cigars, with violation alerts, price floors, and timestamped evidence. It does the enforcement job a retailer plan can't.
