Where each one falls short

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

Bitrix24

  • The free plan is limited to 2 users and 5 GB of storage
  • Plans are flat-rate blocks with hard user ceilings, so exceeding 5, 50 or 100 users means jumping a tier rather than adding a seat
  • Monthly billing is roughly 40 percent dearer than annual, at $69 against $49 on Basic
  • Sales automation and invoicing need Standard at $99 a month, and workflow automation and HR need Professional at $199
  • SOC compliance and the 99.95 percent SLA are Enterprise only, from $399 a month

Conga

  • Conga's pricing page publishes no rate, no plan tier and no product list, and offers only a Get Conga Pricing enquiry button
  • Pricing is handled case by case through sales rather than through published tiers
  • Conga's CPQ product is now branded Advantage CPQ and is positioned as an integration on top of an existing CRM, so a Salesforce or equivalent CRM licence is required separately
