Subscriptions or your own system:
which is cheaper over 3 years

How we calculate
Subscriptions per month
Σ (seats × price per seat)
Every year seats grow by your % (rounded up - you don't hire half a person).
Subscriptions, cumulative
sum of subscription payments from month 1 to month N
Own system, cumulative
system price + support per month × N
Payback
the first month where subscriptions cumulative ≥ own system cumulative
Payback within 24 months - we build. Longer - we advise staying on the subscription.

Discuss this with the teamHonest about the math
Service prices in the example are illustrative - enter your own. The price of your own system is our “from” price, the exact amount and scope come after a subscription audit. The calculation leaves out the cost of moving the team to a new system and annual-billing discounts on subscriptions.
This is a reference point, not a promise of results. Our prices here are “from” prices, the exact amount is fixed in writing after an audit.
Questions
What is the 24-month rule?
We take on replacing subscriptions only if your own system pays back within 24 months. If it takes longer, we say so in the audit and advise staying on the subscription.
Why do seats grow in steps?
Subscriptions are paid per person, and people are hired whole. Once a year the calculator adds your % to the seats and rounds up.
What does your own system include?
A CRM built around your sales process, and in the LIBERTAS programme also support with an AI assistant, tasks, dashboards, data migration and team training. No per-seat fees.
Who looks after the system after handover?
Until handover, we do: backups, security updates, an incident runbook. After that you can run it yourselves or order changes from $90 per task.
