Suggestion for map sharing/after process with large files
There is DroneDB, it's open source project, and you can self-host, or open up projects locally for free. I also believe it has a cloud service that has a few Gb free, but for bigger projects you would have to buy it. It's pretty ok from my experience, but I'm not sure if you can have annotations, I believe it uses similar libraries as WebODM.

How to share point cloud with clients.
For simply sharing a 3d model you could use Sketchfab or DroneDB.

What's the best way to turn a 3GB GeoTIFF into a shareable image, all while keeping details? I know you can't have your cake and eat it too but how do you explain this to clients?
DroneDB is a self-hosted application that can do that https://dronedb.app/

Close to taking the plunge with software
Easy hosting of data is totally Drone Deploy's upside, but again the cost/economics of DD was a hard pill for me to swallow. I am very excited about DroneDB: https://dronedb.app/ because it looks like it will fill the sharing void at a much cheaper price point. The interface is not as shiny as DroneDeploy but I love that they offer a "we host" or "you host" option and you can go between the two - that's great for scaling operations if you plan to seriously grow your drone program.

DroneDB Hub — A versatile open source modern Aerial Data Management ecosystem
It would have been nice if you'd given us the actual GitHub link. When I Googled DroneDB Hub I found the page for the business and it wasn't even clear to me if it was open source or not.
It's in our roadmap: https://github.com/DroneDB/DroneDB/issues/12 so stay tuned!

Microsoft PHOTOSYNTH is gone, what do I use for free photogrammetry now?
I've also worked with WebODM but that's more for drone mapping and can be a little tricky to get to work for free.

Photogrammetry on Commercial Flights (2021)
A better solution would be to use a program that does what most people think of when they hear the word photogrammetry these days, 3D reconstruction from multiple images, and then make an orthorectified image from that.
OpenDroneMap can do that for example.

I work for a telecom company who’s trying ti implement drone imagery usage to create orthomosaics to pull EOC and other structures. My background is GIS so I’m a little new to this. What is this best bang for our buck for a program that can process projects containing 2000 images or more?
I like webODM. https://www.opendronemap.org/webodm/

- My wife asked if I had a drone, if I could make a model of our house so she could plan landscaping. 30 minutes later I called from best buy to make sure she meant it. Here's me meeting my end of the bargain.

How do you present/host online interactive 3D models for clients?
If you're into open source and self-hosted platforms OpenDrone processes and shares 3D models, orthos, point clouds, etc. Plus it's brandable to your company. It's an amazing bit of app if you're comfortable hosting something yourself/in the cloud.
