Where each one falls short

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

Brightpearl

  • No pricing is published, and every quote is described as a bespoke setup
  • Cost is driven by business size rather than by a stated unit, so nothing can be estimated before contacting sales
  • The vendor frames cost as a percentage of revenue, which means the bill grows with turnover rather than with usage

Comet ML

  • The free cloud tier caps data at 25,000 spans a month with 60 day retention
  • Retention stays at 60 days even on the paid Pro plan, and extending it is a $29 per 100k spans add on
  • Overage on Pro is $5 per additional 100,000 spans
  • The free MLOps tier is a single user with 100 GB of storage and training hours governed by a fair usage policy
  • Pro MLOps is $19 per user per month and caps the team at 10 users
