The short version
- Each has a real cost: 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; PLAXIS bentley states the cost of PLAXIS 2D, 2D Advanced, 2D Ultimate and the 2D WorkSuite varies per region, and publishes no rate on the product page
- They diverge on capability: Cority EHS covers Incident management, PLAXIS covers 2D & 3D finite element analysis.

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
PLAXIS
- Bentley states the cost of PLAXIS 2D, 2D Advanced, 2D Ultimate and the 2D WorkSuite varies per region, and publishes no rate on the product page
- Consolidation, creep, groundwater flow and heat flow require the Advanced edition rather than the base PLAXIS 2D
- Dynamic, vibration and transient analysis require the Ultimate edition
- A perpetual licence only carries support and licence exchange rights while a paid annual SELECT subscription is maintained
- The Virtuoso subscription route is a 12 month lease, not an ongoing entitlement
