How the numbers work
- Total cost = monthly cost × months, plus a one-time switching cost on the new tool and any extra monthly cost it brings.
- Comparisons marked Reference prices use published price ladders checked on 24 Oct 2026 – 11 Nov 2026. Partly reference prices means one side is an estimate you can edit to match your quote; Illustrative means both sides are.
- A negative result is shown as a negative result. Sometimes staying is the cheaper choice.
