I used to like these sites, but after doing a bit more design work I've realised they're never enough. You need a bunch of different shades for each colour, a set of neutrals, and set of complimentary colours too (and that's just the colours). Give me a 30 colour generator then I might be interested |

None of these color palette sites & service ever work for actual interface or brand design work. They encourage picking harmonic sets of 4-5 colors, which is only a secondary parameter when actually designing - you need contrast & workable combinations first and foremost, while you seldomly really want more than two different hues (unless you know what you're doing with them).
I consider offers like this a nice starting point, get an impression of different ranges. But even if I end up picking a set from there, I'll seldom be using all of the suggested colors in a set to build my palette.
