Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Logiwa
- No pricing is published at any level
- Cost is driven by fulfilment volume and complexity rather than user count, and neither the unit nor the rate is stated
- No minimum commitment is disclosed
- A discovery call is required before any figure is given
Manhattan Associates
- Manhattan Active is cloud subscription only with no perpetual licence and no on-premises deployment, so organisations with a capital purchasing model or air-gapped requirements are excluded outright.
- Legacy WMOS and SCALE customers pay annual maintenance of roughly 18 to 22 per cent of licence value while the vendor steers investment towards Active, so staying put has a rising opportunity cost as well as a cash cost.
- Implementation is a tier-one project measured in quarters, and system integrator fees routinely match or exceed several years of subscription, which is the part that breaks budgets rather than the licence.
- Functional depth assumes complexity; operations with simple distribution end up configuring around capability they do not need and paying for it every year.
- Modules are priced individually, so warehouse, order, transportation and labour management each carry their own line, and a business case built on the WMS alone understates the eventual footprint.
