Where each one falls short

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

Hive

  • The free plan is capped at 200 MB of storage
  • The Starter plan at $5 per user per month is limited to 10 projects
  • Eight capabilities are sold as $5 per user add ons on the Teams plan, including CRM, timesheets, proofing, resourcing, advanced dashboards, external users and SSO
  • Buying SSO plus a few of those add ons therefore costs more than the $12 base seat itself
  • AI credits are metered monthly at 1,000, 3,000 and 5,000 by plan

TeamViewer

  • Pricing page gates all figures behind plan selection with no listed price for its Teams and Tensor Enterprise tiers, which are described as a fully customized license requiring sales contact
  • Add-on modules (Asset Management, Endpoint Protection, Device Monitoring, Assist AR Lite, Mobile Device Management) are sold separately from the core license, only offered with a 30-day free trial before charges apply
