Billed on
Quoted per customer; the licensing model was preserved through the change of owner
Depends on configuration; several features are priced separately
Storage ($5 / 100,000 images stored / month), delivery ($1 / 100,000 images delivered / month), and transformations (first 5,000 unique transformations/month free, then $0.50 / 1,000 unique transformations/month). A unique transformation is billed per distinct parameter combination (e.g. same image at 100x100 and 200x200 counts as two). Storage/delivery charges apply only to images hosted in Cloudflare Images; transforming externally-hosted images is billed only under transformations.

Most common complaint
It changed hands in March 2026, so anything written before that date describes it as an Extensis product
Feature-level add-on pricing makes the final figure hard to anticipate before a quote
Not checked
Only the floor of the base package is published; everything else is quoted

“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.

Portfolio It changed hands in March 2026, so anything written before that date describes it as an Extensis product — ask them to answer this in writing before the trial.
Kontainer Feature-level add-on pricing makes the final figure hard to anticipate before a quote — ask them to answer this in writing before the trial.
IntelligenceBank Only the floor of the base package is published; everything else is quoted — ask them to answer this in writing before the trial.
