When Linkly wins

  • You want analytics, QR codes, and routing without paying
  • You need expiring or password-protected links
  • You want to manage links in a team
  • You care about safety (Safe Browsing + abuse reporting)

When they might be better

  • You only need to shorten one link occasionally with no account
  • You already use TinyURL through a long-running integration

For anything beyond a single shortened URL, Linkly is the more modern choice.
