The short version

  • Only WPS Office has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Beautiful.ai enterprise pricing requires contacting sales; WPS Office the free tier is funded by advertising, and the adverts and upgrade prompts appear inside the editing window rather than on a website, so the cost of not paying is charged in interruptions while you work.

Where each one falls short

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

Beautiful.ai

  • Enterprise pricing requires contacting sales
  • Annual commitment for Pro plan; annual subscriptions non-refundable after 24 hours
  • Monthly subscriptions are non-refundable

WPS Office

  • The free tier is funded by advertising, and the adverts and upgrade prompts appear inside the editing window rather than on a website, so the cost of not paying is charged in interruptions while you work.
  • Kingsoft is a Chinese company and cloud sync stores documents on its infrastructure by default, which is a procurement blocker for government, defence and many regulated buyers no matter how well the software performs.
  • Complex Microsoft files still drift, so heavily formatted documents with tracked changes, PowerPoint animations and workbooks using recent functions or VBA macros can open with differences that only become visible when the file goes back to a Microsoft user.
  • There is no tenant administration, so an organisation has no central console for licences, policy, retention or offboarding, and every installation has to be managed on the individual machine.
  • Cloud storage stops at 1 GB free and 20 GB per user when paid, so it works as sync for documents and stops being viable for anyone handling media, scans or large PDF archives.

Yes, and it is not time-limited. It shows adverts, caps cloud storage at 1 GB, and holds back PDF editing and conversion, text recognition and electronic signature for the paid plan.

Beautiful.ai: Is there a refund policy for Beautiful.ai subscriptions?

Annual Pro subscriptions receive a partial refund if requested within 24 hours. Monthly subscriptions are non-refundable.

Source
WPS Office: Does it run on Linux?

Yes, with maintained desktop builds, which is unusual for a commercial office suite. The Linux version can trail Windows on newer features.

Beautiful.ai: Does Beautiful.ai offer a free tier?

Beautiful.ai does not offer a free plan but provides a 14-day free trial for the Pro plan that requires a credit card.

Source
WPS Office: Is it suitable for a regulated organisation?

Usually not without a review. The vendor is Chinese, cloud sync is on by default, and there is no administrative or compliance tooling of the kind a regulated buyer will be asked to evidence.
