Methodology and sources
Every price is copied from the vendor's own pricing page and stored with its source and check date; nothing is estimated from sales quotes, and quote-only tools show no dollar figure. Starting price is the lowest paid monthly list price published. We don't rank by features or reviews. Full methodology.
