Where each one falls short

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

ConstructConnect

  • Project Intelligence is priced per market at $129 per month for Starter and from $199 per month for Professional, so covering more geographic markets multiplies the cost
  • Premium Project Intelligence pricing is custom and requires contacting sales
  • Takeoff is billed per seat per year at $1,200 for Starter and $2,200 for Professional and is priced separately from Project Intelligence

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
