Where each one falls short

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

Egnyte

  • Storage is allocated per plan rather than per user, at 100 GB on Business and 150 GB on every tier above it
  • 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

JobTread

  • No free tier available; minimum $199 per month
  • No contract or setup fees, but 30-day money-back guarantee applies only to monthly plans
  • 20% savings available on annual subscriptions, but annual terms appear to sacrifice money-back guarantee
