How TaskEdge Calculates Its Pricing Savings Claims
When you see "a 10-person team saves $1,296/year switching from ClickUp", the number should be reproducible. This page documents exactly how every competitor-cost figure on taskedge.io is computed, which sources are used, and when the numbers were last verified. We publish this because pricing comparisons are only useful if you can check the math yourself.
The Flat-vs-Per-Seat Cost Formula
Per-seat task management tools charge a price per user per month. Flat tools like TaskEdge charge one price per team up to a user cap. For a team of N people:
- Per-seat vendor: monthly cost = list price per user × N seats
- Per-seat vendor: yearly cost = monthly cost × 12
- TaskEdge Pro: $12/month flat (up to 10 users) — independent of N up to the cap
- TaskEdge Team: $32/month flat (up to 50 users)
- Annual savings = (per-seat yearly cost) − (TaskEdge yearly cost)
All figures use the vendor's monthly list price published on their own pricing page. Annual pre-pay discounts (typically 10–20% off) are not applied to either side, so the comparison is conservative for TaskEdge and standard for the competitor.
Worked Example: 10-Person Team, Monthly Billing
| Tool | List price | 10 users / month | Per year | vs TaskEdge Pro |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| TaskEdge Pro (flat) | $12/team | $12 | $144 | — |
| ClickUp Business | $12/user | $120 | $1,440 | save $1,296/yr |
| Asana Business | $24.99/user | $249.90 | $2,998.80 | save $2,854.80/yr |
| Monday.com Standard | $9/user (min 3 seats) | $90 | $1,080 | save $936/yr |
Source basis: clickup.com/pricing, asana.com/pricing and monday.com/pricing list pages at the verification date below. Monday.com's tier names and prices vary by region and product line; where a regional variant applies, the comparison pages (EU/UK pricing) state the region-specific number used.
50-Person Team Scenario
At 50 users TaskEdge Team applies ($32/month flat):
- ClickUp Business: 50 × $12 = $600/month → $7,200/yr → save $6,816/yr
- Asana Business: 50 × $24.99 = $1,249.50/month → $14,994/yr → save $14,606/yr
- Monday.com Standard: 50 × $9 = $450/month → $5,400/yr → save $5,016/yr
Rules We Follow
- Public list prices only. We never compare negotiated, promo, or nonprofit rates against our standard pricing.
- Same billing period on both sides. Monthly vs monthly; annual vs annual (EU pages note annual discounts where relevant).
- Headcount is stated. Every savings figure names the team size it assumes (10 or 50 users on this site).
- Setup and platform fees ignored. Neither side is charged hypothetical implementation cost.
- Verification date published. Numbers are re-checked when the competitor publishes new prices; the date stamps in our comparison pages and on this page change accordingly.
- Rounding disclosed. "~$250/month" style figures are rounded to the nearest dollar and marked with a tilde.
What the Comparison Does Not Include (in TaskEdge's Favor)
Our tables compare seat costs only. Several things bundled into every TaskEdge plan are frequently paid add-ons elsewhere or require separate products — native AI planning (unlimited AI credits on Pro/Team), conversational invoicing, expense tracking with receipt OCR, proposals, and client portals. Including a fair replacement cost for those apps would increase the savings shown above, so leaving them out keeps the claims conservative.
Context & Limits
- Competitor prices change; treat any snapshot as an estimate until you verify against the vendor's live pricing page.
- Free plans are excluded from savings math (a true $0-vs-$0 comparison is not meaningful).
- Feature bundling differs between products; price is one factor among capability, migration cost, and workflow fit.
- For region-specific prices (EUR/GBP, VAT context) see the ClickUp EU, Asana EU, and Monday EU comparisons.
