Compare licenses and staff time for one tool with the estimated cost of building and running your own. All outputs are estimates. Read the methodology.
Search any company, or type a name we don't list yet.
Try a company (Salesforce), a product (Dynamics, Jira) or a category (help desk).
1. What renting costs
Your yearly spend, rising 12% a year, plus the staff time the tool should save but doesn't.
2. What owning costs
A one-time build for the parts worth owning, then a monthly cost for an engineer on call and hosting.
3. What to keep renting
Parts that are hard to run yourself, like email sending or payments, stay rented in the estimate.
What one tool costs you in licenses and staff time over 5 years, next to an estimate of building your own version and keeping it running for the same 5 years.
Typical build costs for each software category, plus extra costs for specific tools where we have them, such as moving your data. It assumes a 12% yearly renewal increase on the tool you rent.
Your answers are saved without your name, email or company and added to the anonymous data on company pages, like what teams pay and how much of a tool they use.
No. It's an estimate to help you decide whether to look closer. Get real quotes from builders before you decide.
Full assumptions: methodology. Real results from teams that built: stories.
