Idk man, it's a massive chunk of Other People's Money too. Prices like this is why Microsoft Teams has dominance over Slack. There's really two use cases: 1. If you don't use the budget, you have less budget. I see this happen a lot in construction too, where each project has a set budget and it goes down or gets stolen in time. They'd rather pay $25k for the lifetime of a 2 year project than pay $500/month. (the other fear is that these startups shut down in a year) 2. Tax exemptions, or some sort of money laundering where there's more value to pay a big name lots of money.
