The problem with "cup-of-coffee pricing" is that if I trust everybody that has a subscription to sell to me, at the end of the month I will be broke. Too much

Too much subscriptions is death by a thousand cuts.
- notyourday 7y agoExactly. People who want a service for $5.00/mo aren't viable customers for SaaS
- WWLink 7y agoThey can be if the SaaS is really really simple. I'm imagining stuff like what used to be $25 shareware that the owner now charges $10 a year for.
- WWLink 7y agoPlus what kinda cup-of-coffee are we talking here? A pack of coffee costs me ~$7 and will last me at least a few dozen cups! Even if I count a generous amount of creamer, that's $3-4 a bottle and should be good for at least a dozen cups of coffee (again, really generous with that creamer lol). If I'm out of town I'll grab a cup at mcdonalds or something. The regular cofee maxes out around $1.59. Or I could go fancy and get a medium caramel macchioto for $3.25 or so. So you're telling me I can get their software for $0.50-$3.25 a month? Not bad! :D
