Right. $27/month per user for email filtering and meeting scheduling seems absolutely crazy. While I applied the idea of supporting other small startups, lots of the items in this list seem frivolous!

If you're in the west coast US. This company appears to be italian, so the reality is more like €3k/month, and as they're a startup it might be even less. The other option is looking at it that they're spending 10% of their recurring revenue on SAAS products, which as a 3 person team seems crazy.
How does this even matter from a budget perspective? You are already paying probably in the $10-20k / month range for per-employee salary.
Seems a lot like complaining about a dripping faucet while you have a water main break.
