Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Datamine
- Datamine publishes no price, no licence term and no named cost driver; the planning pages route buyers to a consultation or a sales contact form
- The portfolio is split into many separate products across strategy, design, scheduling, blasting, survey and production, so a complete workflow requires assembling several licences
- Products acquired from other vendors, including Minemax Scheduler and Minemax Tempo, are now sold inside Datamine bundles rather than standalone
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
