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

Perplexity

  • Context window has been stealthily reduced despite prior claims of 1-million-token capacity
  • Citations sometimes point to irrelevant or overly general articles that do not support the stated claims
  • Weak performance on complex multi-step reasoning and deep logic compared to dedicated reasoning LLMs
  • Web crawler ignores robots.txt directives and scrapes content from sites that explicitly opted out
  • Pro subscription quotas and feature access quietly reduced without user notification
