Ask HN: What B2B SaaS Apps do you pay for?
24 points by zarajanssen 4078 days ago
I am interested in knowing what apps you pay for monthly that you use in your business.

The last such discussion was done 3 months ago at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8932731 - but did not get many replies.

If possible, please also put the monthly amount you pay for the service.

And you run a saas too? Just curious to to know how many users you serve with this. Only if you are okay to say it in public.
A couple of hundred users(smaller number of accounts since each account may have more than 1 user)
