The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Inngest the free Hobby tier pauses function execution entirely once its 50,000 monthly executions are used, rather than allowing pay-as-you-go overage, as of August 2026.; Paragon no price is published for either plan, and both require a quote

Paragon

  • No price is published for either plan, and both require a quote
  • Cost scales with the number of customer tenants using the integrations, so the bill follows an end customer count rather than the vendor's own usage
  • SAML SSO, self hosting, dynamic field mapping and SLAs are all Enterprise only
