Where each one falls short

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

Darwinbox

  • No pricing is published anywhere on the site; visitors are directed only to schedule a demo or request early access rather than see a figure
  • The vendor's own homepage frames access around demos and early access programs rather than self-serve signup, meaning evaluation requires a sales conversation before any cost is known

OmniFocus 3

  • Apple platforms only apart from the web client: macOS 14, iOS or iPadOS 17, watchOS 10 or visionOS 2 and newer are required, with no Windows or Android app
  • Web access is not included with a perpetual licence and costs an extra $4.99 per month or $49.99 per year
  • The Pro perpetual licence costs $149.99 against $74.99 for Standard
  • Future major upgrades are a paid discount rather than free for perpetual licence holders
  • The $99.99 per year subscription is the only option that bundles Pro plus web access
