Limits worth knowing in BlackLine

No price list or pricing page exists; every deal is quoted after a demo.
It is a close and receivables layer, not a general ledger, so a separate ERP is still needed.
The customer base the site describes is mainly large enterprises, so smaller teams may find it more than they need.
