The Wicketry SaaS Price Index: -9.0% — the median confirmed price change since 25 Aug 2026, across 40 matched movements at 10 of the 156 tools tracked.

How this number is computed, and what it refuses

How it is computed. A movement counts only where a confirmed change holds the same number of prices before and after, each pair in the same currency — so every figure is a price compared with the price it replaced, on the vendor's own page, with both readings and both dates recorded. 17 of the 40 matched movements rose and 23 fell, between -70.0% and +166.7%; the mean is +4.3% and the median is the headline because a mean over a base this size follows its extremes. What is refused: readings not yet confirmed by a second clean read; plans that appeared or were withdrawn, which change a ladder rather than a price; ladders that did not move one-for-one; and weighting of any kind, because the record holds no revenue or seat counts. It is an index of observed list-price movement across 10 of 156 tracked tools — not a claim about what the market spends.

New this week

15 more comparisons are written for other markets. They are not listed here because their figures are not the ones you would be charged.

Browse by category

Each category page states what “best” can honestly mean, then names a tool per axis — cheapest way in, real free plans, local-currency billing — with every figure dated and linked to its source.

Our three rules

1.We are paid by some of the tools we list, never for a ranking or a rating. A commission never moves a row — every page carrying one says so at the top.
2.Every price links to the page it came from and shows the day we read it. If we couldn’t read a page, we say so — we never guess.
3.When a price changes our pages update — and the old price stays visible in the tool’s history, forever.
