Where each one falls short

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

Tresorit

  • Business plan requires a minimum of 3 users and Business Pro requires a minimum of 5 users
  • The Professional plan is single-user only, so a solo account cannot invite teammates without upgrading to a multi-seat tier
  • None of the four tiers publish an exact price on the pricing page itself; all show per-month placeholders with the figure omitted and require going through checkout to see a number

Vultr

  • Vultr Cloud Compute pricing as captured 31 December 2022 started at $5/month (1 vCPU, 1GB RAM, 25GB storage, 1TB transfer), scaling to $10/month and $20/month with more vCPU/RAM/storage; bandwidth overage billed at $0.01 to $0.05 per GB depending on plan
