  1. Compared functionalities from left to right are: tunable tool parameters, specific tool for each analysis step insuring modularity, possibility to build a design file, generation of QC plots, interactivity in generated files, input filtering options, possibility to cross information with another dataset and advanced clustering parameters. \(\checkmark \)and \(\sim \) signs indicate that the corresponding functionality is fully and partially available in the tool suite respectively.
