The SaaS internet is so boring! These are like carbon copies of each other.

I had one of those for S3stat for a while. It lost decisively in A/B tests to the ugly wall of text that it replaced, so that’s what’s up there today:

I’m still waiting for the next generation of trendy SaaS companies to crib it.

I love your page. Being an authentic human and actually having some personality seem to be like secret weapons these days.

If I ever create a trendy SaaS company (or an untrendy one for that matter), I'm definitely cribbing the 'pay more if you have accountants on staff' criteria... love it!

Love it.

A lot of this comes down to A/B testing. Once people have found a solution that converts some number of customers, it's hard to take risks. There are alternative designs, but it's safest to just go with what is known. In some cases, the familiarity is helpful for users, but there is no denying that it can be boring. These are the unfortunate constraints that many talented people have to work in.

Given how badly I’ve seen a/b tests being conducted at multiple companies, I’m not sure I’d assume anything from competitors works particularly well.

I can guarantee from my experience that most internet marketing practices are determined by the blind leading the blind.

iamacyborg 6 days ago | parent [-]

Certainly my experience as well.

Would concur 100% on "blind leading the blind" here.

Investor Portal Software Solutions from Investor Portal Pro are custom, built on customer AWS accounts, and based on a toolkit. We'll soon be launching a SaaS version, but not sure I want the pricing pages like these. I want a single price point (per user) that takes people right into the software after paying.

Simplicity is tough, and it's hard to understand which option would be more affordable without a pricing 'calculator'.

Here's our current pricing page (for the on-prem) version

Feedback welcome!

Isn't that a good thing? Let's you compare easily.

It seems like you see either 3-4 columns, or a link to arrange a conference call with a salesperson (e.g. a “don’t-bother-button”)

I'd like to see a pricing page where if you get the ball though the hoop, or some other challenge, you get a discount.

And we wonder why code generating LLMs are... wait, never mind, we don't wonder. Of course, my pricing page looks different for now but will end up looking much the same since that's what visitors generally expect.

Not being boring doesn’t translate to $$, however.

Yeah. Literally all of them are .flex-row>.pricing-card*4.
