Looks very promising. Enjoyed the idea. But would love to see some pricing. The only option is to get in touch, and this gives me an enterprise and expensive feeling.
- benzible 2y agoProbably the best business decision for them. Small, scrappy startups will just implement webhooks themselves.
- valtlfelipe 2y agoI agree, but it's something I would consider use, depending on the pricing, by being a solo dev.
- benzible 2y agoThe issue is: if you have pricing that works for solo devs / small teams, you'll leave a lot of money on the table with respect to enterprises, who are willing to spend silly amounts of money but also don't want to feel like they're being ripped off. One "solution" is non-transparent pricing but your low-end pricing may leak. Of course you can charge for enterprise features but the signal you send via low end pricing will set expectations for enterprises as well.
- tcistull 2y agoYou've hit the nail on the head with this. One big reason we don't show our pricing is that we're still a young company, and we're figuring things out. We don't yet have enough data to know the real value we bring or who our ideal customer is. If we price too low, we might shortchange ourselves, but if we go too high, we could scare people away.
- tcistull 2y agoFor now (until we are bigger and have more devs), I go off of a per company basis and see the needs/amounts for them. Then I see our costs and shoot over a price to start the discussion
- tcistull 2y agoHey! I'm Thomas, Founder of Syncd. I'd love to discuss our pricing with you in more detail. Feel free to reach out to me directly at tcistull@syncd.dev Looking forward to connecting!
- foolswisdom 2y agoBased on > It's like having a full-time integration team at 1/3 the cost It definitely sounds like they intend to charge a nice amount of money.
- textninja 2y agoI took that to mean savings in developer hours (reduced, not eliminated) and assume the subscription price will be nominal at its lowest tier / usage.
- tcistull 2y agoThomas here, founder of Syncd. Yes this is exactly it!
- tcistull 2y agoHey! Thomas here, founder of Syncd. This was actually intended to mean that our prices are about 1/3 the competitors in this space like Pipedream and Zapier. So in actuality, unless you are sending 10's of millions of events, it's not "that"(relative to each company) expensive. I can see where the confusion would come from, I will try and come up with a new tag-line for that! Thanks for the info!!
- tcistull 2y agoHey! I'm Thomas, the founder of Syncd, and it's just me working on this project right now. I’ve set up a "contact us" approach for pricing because I don't know what to charge for each customer (generic price, we aren't big enough to determine that yet). I want to speak with companies and understand their specific needs. This way, I can get a better sense of how many webhook events you send and what kind of features you’re looking for. I’m open to any suggestions on what you think is fair and honest pricing for a service like this.
