The short version

  • Only Fedora has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Aha! sold as eight separate products rather than one subscription, so Roadmaps, Discovery, Ideas, Whiteboards, Builder, Develop, Teamwork and Knowledge are each priced per user; Fedora shorter support lifecycle (13 months per release) compared to Ubuntu LTS (5 years) and CentOS (10 years)

Where each one falls short

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

Aha!

  • Sold as eight separate products rather than one subscription, so Roadmaps, Discovery, Ideas, Whiteboards, Builder, Develop, Teamwork and Knowledge are each priced per user
  • Roadmaps at $59 per user per month is expensive next to general project tools, and Discovery and Ideas add $39 each
  • The Develop integration with Roadmaps requires the Enterprise or Enterprise+ tier
  • Annual billing is by invoice only; monthly is card

Fedora

  • Shorter support lifecycle (13 months per release) compared to Ubuntu LTS (5 years) and CentOS (10 years)
  • Rapid release cycle prioritises new features over stability, leading to potential compatibility breakage between releases
  • Not optimised for long-term enterprise deployments without reimaging at each major release
  • Hardware support can lag behind for newer devices, requiring backports or external repositories
