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
Zapier
- The free plan allows 100 tasks per month and only two-step Zaps, one trigger and one action
- Multi-step Zaps, filters, paths, webhooks and the formatter all require a paid plan
- Premium app connectors are withheld from the free plan
- Free Zaps poll for new data every 15 minutes against 2 minutes on Professional and 1 minute on Team
- Paying monthly rather than annually costs 50 percent more, so the 2,000-task Professional plan is $73.50 a month instead of $49
