Where each one falls short

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

Kanbanize

No per user price or minimum user count is published, despite the page being headed simple pricing
Automation rules are a paid add on on both plans, capped at 300 on Standard
SSO is a paid add on rather than included at either tier
File storage is 100 GB on Standard against 1 TB on Enterprise, and API calls are capped on Standard without the limit being stated
A dedicated cloud instance, IP whitelisting and 24/7 support are Enterprise only

Paragon

No price is published for either plan, and both require a quote
Cost scales with the number of customer tenants using the integrations, so the bill follows an end customer count rather than the vendor's own usage
SAML SSO, self hosting, dynamic field mapping and SLAs are all Enterprise only
