effective / user = (per-user price × max(team size, minimum users) + required fixed charge) / team size

Why the ranking moves so much

Two things move it. A minimum user count makes a plan expensive per person for a small team, and stops mattering once you are past it. A fixed monthly charge does the same thing more sharply, because it does not shrink at all. Set the number to two and then to fifty and watch the order change.

A third thing moves the published figure itself: the billing term. Where a vendor prints both, the annual rate is the one used here, and paying by the month runs 18% to 29% higher.

Who this is not for

If you are choosing based on security architecture, device support or throughput, this tool has nothing to say. It compares published prices and does not know whether any of these products is any good.
