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

Viewpoint Vista

  • Now sold by Trimble as part of Trimble Construction One rather than as an independent Viewpoint product
  • Pricing is not published; the vendor asks for a phone call or a contact form
  • Built for construction contractors, so its accounting assumes job costing rather than general ledger work
