We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I would like it to be cheaper, but comparatively, it is reasonably priced."
"In terms of the cost, SQL Azure is a pay-per-use solution, particularly because it's a cloud subscription, so you pay as much as you use it."
"I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten."
"We pay less than $1000 monthly in licensing fees. There are no additional costs."
"When looking at the long-term expenses associated with running software on an on-premises server, the costs are almost equivalent but when we include insurance for devices, onsite fees for servers, and other related costs, we may find that this is a cost-effective solution."
"The license is based on the number of users."
"I believe the licensing is more on a global scale."
"We have a three-year contract. The cost was somewhere around $70-80,000 for the original deployment, which was about two years ago"
