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

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
