Self-host only if someone on the team is happy running a server. | Test on Free first to make sure your target sites work. Professional suits most business use because of the site and user limits; pay yearly if you are sure, as monthly costs much more. | There is only one public option now: talk to sales for an Enterprise quote. Ask for a usage cap and clear reporting on credit spend in the contract. |
