I am going to just copy some info from a web page that has compiled some comparisons for you. Here is the link to the full article: GeoNadir, “Software for Drone Mapping: Which One is Best?”, Feb. 14, 2023.  In a nutshell it says  Correlator 3D is the best for accuracy and speed but at a cost of $6000 and monthly subscription of $300, it is very pricey. On the other end, WebODM is about $100 to get it installed and a processing fee of about $30 per job if you want to process it on their servers (which you will want to do for big jobs, 400+ photos to process).   Pix4D Mapper and Agisoft Metashape are also reviewed in the article.  I use WebODM on a Mac and I like it.
