| SAML SSO and SCIM | Enterprise | SAML on Business; SCIM on Enterprise |
| Audit log | Enterprise (audit events) | Enterprise |
| Bulk export | Own docs as .txt and .csv | Workspace as HTML, Markdown and CSV |
| Bottom line | From its public pages, Coda (now Superhuman Docs) costs the least here when few people create docs, because Editors and Viewers are free. Admin, analytics and compliance controls sit on Enterprise, which is what lowers its score. | From its public pages, Notion is the broadest workspace here, with open export formats on every plan and viewer analytics on Plus. Paying for every member and keeping audit logs and residency on Enterprise are what hold its score back. |
