Where each one falls short

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

Cority EHS

  • No pricing published: customers cannot evaluate cost-to-value before demo or sales engagement
  • CorityOne platform depth hidden: modules (Reporting & Analytics, Cortex AI, Learning Management, myCority Mobile, Document Control) lack feature-to-price mapping
  • Sales-gated access: must contact sales or request demo to learn if platform fits budget
  • Multi-module complexity: unclear which EHS+ capabilities are included per tier or if all modules cost extra

PLAXIS

  • Bentley states the cost of PLAXIS 2D, 2D Advanced, 2D Ultimate and the 2D WorkSuite varies per region, and publishes no rate on the product page
  • Consolidation, creep, groundwater flow and heat flow require the Advanced edition rather than the base PLAXIS 2D
  • Dynamic, vibration and transient analysis require the Ultimate edition
  • A perpetual licence only carries support and licence exchange rights while a paid annual SELECT subscription is maintained
  • The Virtuoso subscription route is a 12 month lease, not an ongoing entitlement
