Verdict
An open-source PHP/Symfony platform unifying PIM, DAM, CMS and MDM on one codebase, for teams with in-house developers or an integrator partner rather than a marketing team wanting to self-serve.
A team file library billed as a flat monthly fee with unlimited users, aimed at organisations where most people only need to download an approved file a few times a month.
An open-source DAM, CMS, and PIM platform combining asset, content, and product management for mid-to-large enterprises in banking, insurance, and retail.
An open-licence, self-hosted DAM for teams with in-house server admin capability, trading a free licence for the time to run upgrades, tune dependencies and troubleshoot it themselves.

Billed on
Annual licence per edition, not per user
Flat price per account — users are not a billing unit
Cloud service: billed by storage capacity (GB) plus which optional modules you select; user accounts are unlimited/uncapped. No public price list — pricing is obtained via a configurator/calculator or by requesting a quote. On-premise/hosted deployments use Free, Standard, and Enterprise license editions (feature-gated), also quote-only. A non-commercial Free Edition exists with no disclosed price.
Self-hosted: no licence fee. Hosted: a user ceiling per tier

Most common complaint
It is a broader platform than a DAM — some capability has to be built rather than switched on
Storage ceilings are modest next to enterprise platforms, so large video libraries outgrow the tiers quickly
Not checked
The free route is genuinely free of licence fees but moves hosting, upgrades and support onto you
