What do you use it for? Do you need a semi-auto tuning feature (pigtronix ring master is a compact alternative)? Do you need the single sideband modulation (Alexander syntax error is a compact alternative)?
Bitquest! is fine. Not too much range but easy enough to find good sounds. The preamp/gain kills anything that ring thing does really (I don't like ring thing personally). If I remember correctly, the bitquest carrier doesn't go as high or low frequency as a lot of others. I feel like the total range is somewhat similar to the ring thing though but doesn't go nearly as high as the frequency analyzer (for an EHX reference).
If you want a straight ring mod there are ton of great options. It's all about what you want out of it and how you intend to use it.
As for ring mod/bit crusher combo...you could look at zoom multistomp too. They have some great other effects stuffed in there (like a slicer which may interest you).
