Procore

  • Pricing scales with construction volume rather than seats, so a contractor cannot estimate cost from team size
  • Every figure requires contacting sales, and products are quoted individually rather than as one list price

ZBrush

  • Subscription model required; no perpetual licence option available
  • iPad version requires separate subscription to ZBrush for iPad
