Usage rates and allowances are unpublished, so the point prices are seat-only floors; the usage overhaul and complaint figures come from press and Productive (a competitor), and the CostBench $9-to-$14 'top tier' log was not recorded as a hike because it appears to reflect Enterprise's price becoming public.
