Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Paragon
- No price is published for either plan, and both require a quote
- Cost scales with the number of customer tenants using the integrations, so the bill follows an end customer count rather than the vendor's own usage
- SAML SSO, self hosting, dynamic field mapping and SLAs are all Enterprise only
Spline
- AI generation features produce inconsistent and often distorted results, failing at basic depth perception tasks
- Limited to simpler designs - not suitable for high-poly, detailed production models
- Performance degrades with complex scenes containing many objects and materials
- Limited non-Apple platform coverage compared to cross-platform design tools
- Tutorials are either too fast for beginners or too basic for advanced users
