He was wrong; Atlassian's pricing cut the floor out from the market, so Fog Creek changed our pricing to stay competitive. I've watched some SCMs change their pricing in response to Kiln's downward force, too, and I expect that Trello's competitors are doing the same. Welcome to responsive pricing.
- mhp 14y agoIt's complicated, but the sentiment that charging your most price insensitive people a fixed price is nutty is still true - I don't think that's wrong. Although Jira has a fixed price ceiling, Confluence is not priced that way: http://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence/pricing/?tab=download http://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence/pricing/?tab=do... As for FogBugz, as another poster wrote "if your competitor is an order of magnitude cheaper, and not significantly worse" you have to respond to that (even if you think they are nutty, and a bit more than significantly worse).
- gecko 14y agoSorry; the "he was wrong" applied purely to FogBugz' situation due to the Jira price cap, which is really not clear in my comment. That'll teach me to bang out a response on my iPhone in answer to a tweet when I ought to be reading a book.
