Where each one falls short

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

Envirosuite

  • Envirosuite publishes no price; the site shows no rate, no per site fee and no minimum, and routes buyers to sales or a demo
  • The offering combines software with physical monitoring hardware, so a deployment requires buying or installing sensor equipment for air, dust, odour, noise, vibration or water
  • Coverage is per monitored parameter, so adding noise or water monitoring to an air quality deployment is a further purchase

Seequent Central

  • Cloud hosted on Microsoft Azure and requires an internet connection, with no offline or self-hosted option
  • Hosting instances start at a minimum 500GB of storage, with more sold as an add-on
  • Billing splits into three separate lines: cloud hosting per organisation, user subscriptions per person and Leapfrog Connector licences per modeller
  • Publishing models from Leapfrog into Central requires a separate Leapfrog Connector licence
  • Value depends on already owning other Seequent tools such as Leapfrog, GeoStudio, PLAXIS or Oasis montaj
