Where each one falls short

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

Nifty

  • The free plan allows 100 MB of storage and 2 active projects
  • The standard plans are flat monthly fees with hard member caps, at 20 on Pro and 50 on Business, so the 21st member forces a jump from $79 to $124 a month
  • Active projects are capped at 100 on Pro despite the flat fee
  • Time tracking, custom fields and workflow automations all require the Pro plan
  • Microsoft SSO is Business only and SAML is Unlimited only, at $399 a month
  • White labelling and IP restriction are Unlimited only

Structured

  • No monthly view available, only daily and weekly views, limiting ability to preview long-term schedules
  • Cannot export to Excel, PDF, or other printable formats; only JSON export available on Apple devices
  • Calendar import requires Pro subscription (except on web where free import is available)
  • Android and web versions significantly lag behind iOS version in features and performance
  • One-way calendar sync only; cannot export Structured tasks back to Google Calendar or other external calendar apps
