Etudes has published its hosting and support services rates for fiscal year 2010-2011. http://etudes.org/hosting-fees.htm The average per-user cost for Etudes hosting and support is $5.25 per-user. This price represents a 20% reduction from the 2009-2010 per-user Etudes rates. The lower rates were made possible by a move to a new high-performance hosting facility with completely up-to-date high-performance hardware capable of supporting a much larger user population at lower cost. Since Etudes is a non-profit, member-supported organization, these cost savings were passed onto the customers. The Etudes Board of Directors is committed to stable pricing from year-to-year. A sincere effort will always be made to keep rate increases within 3-5% or less. The Etudes Board of Directors also feels that having uniform pricing and publishing pricing details is important for a non-profit organization.
