SkieCan we pay monthly or yearly for Skie?
Billing terms are agreed with the Skie team, so ask for the arrangement that suits your organisation. Schools often prefer to align with the academic year and companies with their financial year. Pricing is on request, and there is no public price list, so the billing period is settled when you get your quote.
The billing period is part of the commercial agreement, not a fixed menu. When you ask for a quote, say how you prefer to pay and why. A school that gets its fees in terms will want a different pattern from a company paying out of a monthly operating budget.
The question to settle at the same time is the licence period. Seats have a start and an end date, and the sweep and notices work from the end date. If your billing and licence dates do not match, you may find yourself paying for a gap or renewing at an awkward moment.
Think too about what is inside the price. Rollout help, training and support may be included or may be separate. Setup fees, if any, are agreed with the team. Writing all of this into one document makes it easier to compare with other vendors.
If you are buying through a purchase order process, tell the team early. They can tell you what paperwork they need, and you can build the lead time into your plan. Large organisations often need more than one approval, and a pilot can be arranged first.
A practical tip: ask for a written quote showing seats, term, what support is included, what the cost is for extra seats mid-year and what happens at renewal. Five lines on one page is easier to take to a committee than a long email chain.
