That's usually not really practical. Even businesses that have transparent pricing by usage still have enterprise sales teams and their customers always want to negotiate. Usage patterns are all unique. Sometimes you can offer non-monetary value like case studies, beta testing, or some sort of in-kind service. You can trade on commitment times versus price per transaction or price per user or whatever. There's no easy way around it.

- tomrod 5y agoA top comment from reddit's sysadmin forum that is apropos: > If SpaceX can list pricing for launching a payload into space on their website, you can do the same for your [...] software. If I want to use your software as-is without access to your developers to prioritize features, there isn't a need for "enterprise" approaches.
- tootie 5y agoLike I said, even places that list prices want you to negotiate. The list prices above a certain threshold are typically higher than most enterprises are actually paying because the get discounts in exchange for commitments or other considerations. True of all the public cloud providers.
