SaaS Enterprise Pricing

Users debate SaaS pricing models, focusing on enterprise tiers' high costs and lack of flexibility for small teams or individuals needing premium features like multi-user management, while suggesting per-user, tiered, or a-la-carte options.

I'd like to use Enterprise premium features, but I may have only say, 5 users who need those features. My other potential 50-100 users don't need Enterprise features. Anyway to work the pricing?

I'm a happy paid user. If I had one request, it is for a different pricing and better management for groups of users.People like me would like to buy 5-10 licenses and manage them centrally.Define shared endpoints and individual endpoints,etc

That sounds like an enterprise feature with "call us" pricing to me. :-)

This is more of a premium feature you make available as part of your $$$$ enterprise offering.

The target audience is startups? Wouldn't the majority of them fit into the free plan? (While potentially consuming most of the support time)

Would be nice if it were tiered per org size rather than per user.

(with enterprise features that most people don't need)

you can't in their free saas, and they don't offer paid saas on a per-user basis (just a $100/mo plan for 300 users)

Yes that's correct. Get a quote for your use case, if you are already running on higher numbers. Pricing might not fit all cases, that's why there's also an Enterprise tier.

Something to consider... it does sound more like a small business / small time user type situation and not an enterprise arrangement.
