Where each one falls short

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

Autodesk Construction Cloud

  • Autodesk Construction Cloud has been rebranded as Autodesk Forma and the ACC product names have changed, so existing documentation and training refer to superseded names
  • All three bundles (Model Management, Preconstruction and Construction Operations) are sold by Get a Quote with no published price
  • Capability is split across separate bundles, so a firm needing preconstruction and construction operations buys two bundles
  • Pricing is described as user, project and account-based rather than a single published per-seat rate
  • The money-back guarantee is limited to 30 days
  • Expert support hours are 24 hours a day Monday to Friday, so weekends are not covered

PostHog

  • The free tier covers 1M events, 5K web session recordings and 2.5K mobile recordings per month before usage-based billing starts
  • Accounts without a card on file are limited to 1 project; adding one raises it to 6
  • Data retention is 1 year until a card is added, which extends it to 7 years
  • Support is community-only until the account is on a paid plan
  • Error tracking is capped at 100K exceptions and surveys at 1500 responses per month on the free tier
