The six dimensions, on every page
Every page uses the same six dimensions, so two comparisons read like with like. Use them as the columns of your own shortlist.
- Architecture and extensibility
- What language is it, what shape are the APIs, and do your customisations survive an upgrade?
- Licensing and cost model
- What is published, what is negotiated, and what moves when your revenue moves?
- B2B depth
- Which buying rules are product you license, and which are projects you fund?
- Hosting and operations
- Where does it run, who operates it, and do you get to choose?
- Ecosystem and talent
- How easily can you staff the project, and do those skills transfer anywhere else?
- Migration effort
- What ports cleanly, and what gets rebuilt from scratch?
