Most common complaint
Only the floor of the base package is published; everything else is quoted
Feature-level add-on pricing makes the final figure hard to anticipate before a quote
Not one tier and not one figure on the pricing page
The free route is genuinely free of licence fees but moves hosting, upgrades and support onto you

“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.
