Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Adobe Connect

  • Buying guide (archived 2026 capture) names Standard, Premium and Enterprise base plans with no public dollar figures, gating price behind purchase; only one base plan can be bought per customer account
  • Meeting capacity is hard-capped to the number of concurrent user licenses purchased, with Capacity upgrades sold separately per base plan

CoreWeave

  • GPU nodes are sold as full 8 GPU instances rather than single cards, so the entry cost for an H100 node is $49.24 an hour on demand
  • Spot pricing is roughly 40% of on demand, at $19.71 an hour for the same H100 node, so predictable capacity carries a large premium
  • The newest hardware carries no published price and requires contacting sales
  • Discounts of up to 60% require committed usage agreements negotiated with sales
  • Only the GH200 is offered as a single GPU instance
