Where each one falls short

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

Everlaw

  • Quote-only pricing, and ediscovery is typically billed on data volume, which makes costs hard to predict in advance
  • Specialist product: outside litigation and investigations there is no use for it
  • Predictive coding requires a properly trained review workflow, and poor input produces unreliable prioritisation
  • Data volume charges can escalate sharply on large matters

KnowBe4

  • Published prices assume a three year term, so the quoted per seat rate depends on a long commitment
  • Pricing is banded by seat count, and the lowest band of 25 to 50 seats pays the highest rate
  • Accounts above 1,000 seats have no published price and require a custom quote
  • Third party integrations, Compliance Plus and PhishER Plus are all separately priced per seat add ons
  • The Foundation tier carries 200 training modules against more than 1,000 on Advanced, so content volume is the main gate
