The main value to me is being able to compare efforts across different conditions, fitness levels, and bikes, and I'm pretty sure another (free) website can handle that.
Which one? I downloaded Golden Cheetah and it seems to have a ton of metrics, but I am yet to figure out an easy way to compare efforts, particularly efforts along the same route. This is so simple in Strava and so clear. You have segments, and you have your laps.
