Where each one falls short

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

Huly

  • Cloud pricing charges separately for storage and video/audio bandwidth, which can be unpredictable.
  • AI features are listed as 'TBD' rather than fully available.
  • Being a broad all-in-one tool, individual modules are less deep than dedicated best-of-breed products.
  • Self-hosting requires operational effort compared to fully managed competitors.

Sublime Text

  • A personal licence is $99 as a one off purchase but includes only 3 years of updates, after which a paid upgrade is required to keep receiving them
  • Business use is a separate annual subscription rather than a perpetual licence, starting at $65 per seat per year
  • The distinction means the same editor is perpetual for an individual and subscription for a company
