Most common complaint
Several units are metered at once: bandwidth, storage, video units and seats
Like the platforms it competes with, it asks for a form submission before naming a price
Not checked
Three plans are named and none is priced on the pricing page

“Not checked” means exactly that: we have not verified it, not that the platform lacks it. Every other value was read off the vendor’s own pages on the date shown on each platform page.

What to ask on the demo

One question per platform, drawn from what actually goes wrong with it — not a generic checklist. Vendors run the demo; this hands the agenda back to you.

ImageKit Several units are metered at once: bandwidth, storage, video units and seats — ask them to answer this in writing before the trial.
Daminion Like the platforms it competes with, it asks for a form submission before naming a price — ask them to answer this in writing before the trial.
Mylio Three plans are named and none is priced on the pricing page — ask them to answer this in writing before the trial.
