Total cost = SaaS cost + (Setup time × Hourly rate) / 12 + Monthly maintenance × Hourly rate
Concrete example: a freelance creative billing $50/h who loses 30 min/month dealing with sync errors or lost file versions is losing $25/month in hidden time. Dropbox Plus at $12/month pays for itself from that half hour alone — but for a 2-person team moving to Business, the 3-seat minimum means paying $54/month, not $36.
