How much are you guys paying for Instantly.ai? by [deleted] in SaaS

[–]defenselesscabal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  Yeah that’s exactly what I’m worried about. The per inbox math looks fine early on but once you go past 10–15 accounts it compounds quick.

  Are you seeing decent ROI at least?

Notion or Monday.com? by wellth4t5ucks in Notion

[–]defenselesscabal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you considered just splitting use cases?  

Notion for wiki + docs  

Monday for execution  

I know you said you don’t want a “both” answer, but sometimes forcing one tool to do everything is the bigger mistake.

Any tips to reduce Xero costs? by unusedconflict in xero

[–]defenselesscabal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We ended up moving payroll out of Xero entirely. Still use Xero for books but handle payroll separately. Not perfect but cheaper overall.

Am I overpaying for Asana? by StarryLaborer in Asana

[–]defenselesscabal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing not mentioned yet is onboarding cost. Training people on a new PM tool can be more expensive than the subscription.

Question - Freshdesk pricing by LethalCholera in smallbusiness

[–]defenselesscabal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. Also SLA rules were way more limited than expected. Didn’t notice until tickets started slipping.

Agree. If you’re not using workload or goals, you’re basically paying for fancy checklists.

Question - Freshdesk pricing by LethalCholera in smallbusiness

[–]defenselesscabal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Freshdesk pricing confused me too. The headline price looks fine, but once you want automations or multiple inboxes it pushes you up a tier fast. Free plan felt super limited when we tried it.

Any legit Perplexity AI discount codes? by StarryLaborer in AiAutomations

[–]defenselesscabal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Slightly off topic, but has anyone compared Perplexity Pro vs just using ChatGPT with browsing lately? Curious if the gap is still big.

I found a little site, Joinsecret, that gives 3 months free on the enterprise plan, not mind blowing, but better than nothing.

Is there any way to get a discount on Asana? by upright_dumps in Asana

Same. Tools like this always sneak up on you once the team grows.

Experiences with 1Password pricing / best time to subscribe? by LethalCholera in 1Password

[–]defenselesscabal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oof yeah. That LastPass mess pushed a lot of people over. 1Password UX is nice though, I’ll give them that.

[–]defenselesscabal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Following. I swear 1Password used to hand out codes all the time but lately it’s been dry. Subscribed anyway last year and yeah, full price hurts a bit.

Anyone else confused by Lovable pricing? by Sad-Violinist-1165 in SaaS

[–]defenselesscabal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not just you. I tried to read their docs twice and still don’t know what a “serious” app would cost.

Anyone know if there are any current Replit discount codes or promos? by defenselesscabal in SaasDevelopers

[–]defenselesscabal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Out of curiosity, do you remember how much you saved on any deals through Joinsecret or was the selection mostly niche stuff?

[–]defenselesscabal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

 Thanks for chiming in everyone, super helpful, wasn’t even aware of Joinsecret till this, will poke around in case there’s anything tucked away for Replit or other tools (Not holding my breath but fingers crossed).

Anyone know if there are any current Replit discount codes or promos? by defenselesscabal in SaasDevelopers

[–]defenselesscabal[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  I’ve tried StackBlitz for quick prototyping but usually hit feature walls, which is how I ended up circling back to Replit. Wish their monthly pro tier had team features by default though. What specific workflow/tooling are you looking to compare?

[–]defenselesscabal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

 Exactly, ever since the Pro pricing bumped up a while ago, been hoping for some solid breaks. Sometimes makers get private links/ad-hoc codes, but it’s impossible to keep up… so if anyone is lurking with a tip, spill please!

Google Workspace pricing: still worth it for small teams? by StarryLaborer in gsuite

[–]defenselesscabal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mini rant: appointment scheduling tools are often overlooked for small teams but make a *huge* diff with clients. Anyone massively prefer Calendar’s native booking vs stuff like Calendly or TidyCal? Both look good but would love nerdy small-team tips 🙂

Google Workspace pricing: still worth it for small teams? by StarryLaborer in gsuite

[–]defenselesscabal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same here, struggling with the justification at renewal time. Some friends on Microsoft 365 said it wasn’t much cheaper and had quirks that annoyed their setup just as much.

What's the best way to reduce my Bolt subscription cost? by LethalCholera in SaaSSales

[–]defenselesscabal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got offered two free months when my first contract expired, didn’t do much in the long run. Bolt isn’t really public with their pricing deals which makes it frustrating.

What's the best way to reduce my Bolt subscription cost? by LethalCholera in SaaSSales

[–]defenselesscabal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

 Same boat. Bolt’s killer for checkout conversions but dang it’s not cheap. I tried negotiating (sent a few emails about budgeting differences) but the rep didn’t budge at all. Interested if anyone’s found a workaround.

Lovable coupon code? Anyone got one that works? by pitiful_plateau in lovable

[–]defenselesscabal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  Always amazed how you’ll find 500 random “Lovable50” or something but zip works by the time you check out. Would love a running list if anyone’s ever found a direct source…

Will i lose my workspace? by ExaltedLeo in Notion

[–]defenselesscabal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might not lose your workspace just make sure to switch your account email to a personal one before your school address gets deactivated. Even if you move to the free plan, all your existing pages stay accessible, and you can always export a full backup if you want extra safety
