costOptimization:
  - strategy: Use the free Professional cloud plan for small teams (up to 8 members)
    impact: Eliminates subscription cost entirely for small teams.

  - strategy: Self-host the open-source Professional edition for larger teams
    impact: >
      Eliminates per-user SaaS costs for organizations with the infrastructure
      capability. Ongoing costs are server, storage, and operational overhead only.

  - strategy: Use the Unlimited plan bill cap
    impact: >
      The $175/month cap on the Unlimited plan makes costs predictable for
      teams larger than 25 users ($7 × 25 = $175).

  - strategy: Negotiate Enterprise pricing for large teams
    impact: >
      At $25/user/month with a $950/month minimum, Enterprise becomes more
      cost-efficient per user as team size grows beyond 38 users.

  - strategy: Pre-order self-hosted Enterprise before July 31 deadline
    impact: 50% discount available on self-hosted Enterprise plans pre-ordered before July 31, 2026.

costAllocation:
  tags:
    - team
    - project
    - deployment-type
  notes: >
    Cost allocation is primarily driven by user count on cloud plans. For
    self-hosted deployments, infrastructure costs should be tagged by team
    or business unit consuming the service.
