Open the original- What it measures
- The annual price is the discounted Pro price, shown on the pricing card as US$240 per user billed annually. The per-hour figure divides the monthly equivalent by the included hours, so it is the price if all included hours are used.
- What it does not show
- Derived from a plan price, not a list price per hour: the included hours are 'about 25', and the page does not say what extra usage costs on Pro.
