Where each one falls short

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

Buildxact

  • The free Go tier includes only 5 complimentary credits before requiring a paid plan starting at $199 per month, as of August 2026
  • Advanced estimating tools like the Blu Estimate Generator and Takeoff Assistant cost an extra $99 per month each on top of the base plan, as of August 2026

Egnyte

  • Storage is allocated per plan rather than per user, at 100 GB on Business and 150 GB on every tier above it
  • That means Elite at $48 per user per month carries the same 150 GB as Enterprise Lite at $39
  • The Business plan caps the account at 100 power users, so growth past that forces a jump to $39 per user
  • Every published price requires annual payment
  • The Ultimate tier is quoted rather than listed
