Where each one falls short

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

Balsamiq Wireframes

  • Starter plan is capped at 10 projects and costs $16 per editor per month ($192/year)
  • Teams plan raises the cap to only 100 projects at $24 per editor per month; even Enterprise tops out at 400 projects
  • AI credits are metered per editor per month (500 on Starter, 1,000 on Teams, 2,500 on Enterprise), so AI features have a hard usage ceiling beyond the base seat price

Structured

  • No monthly view available, only daily and weekly views, limiting ability to preview long-term schedules
  • Cannot export to Excel, PDF, or other printable formats; only JSON export available on Apple devices
  • Calendar import requires Pro subscription (except on web where free import is available)
  • Android and web versions significantly lag behind iOS version in features and performance
  • One-way calendar sync only; cannot export Structured tasks back to Google Calendar or other external calendar apps
