Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
ETAP
- No pricing is published, and reaching a figure requires completing a multi step quote form
- Subscription durations offered are 3 years and 5 years, so there is no short commitment option
- Licences are banded by user count rather than sold individually, in brackets of 1, 5 to 15, 15 to 25, 25 to 50 and over 50
- National and international network licences are priced separately
