Where each one falls short

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

Cority EHS

  • Cority publishes no price: the platform page shows no rate, no per user fee and no minimum, and offers no self service quote tool
  • The platform is divided into separate modules and solution sets for environmental, health, safety, sustainability and quality, so scope determines cost rather than a list price
  • Capabilities such as learning management, document control and mobile EHS are listed as distinct modules rather than included in one product

Google Maps Platform

  • Free allowances are per service rather than pooled, at 10,000 events a month for dynamic maps, geocoding and autocomplete
  • Dynamic Maps cost $7.00 per 1,000 calls at the entry tier
  • Geocoding and the Directions API both cost $5.00 per 1,000 calls at the entry tier
  • Pricing is tiered by volume, so the effective unit price depends on total monthly usage and is hard to predict in advance
  • Billing is usage based with no flat plan, so a traffic spike is a cost spike
