Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Egnyte

- 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
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
