- Each solution area uses different pricing metrics, requiring complex calculations for multi-solution purchases

- Platform complexity and multiple solution areas may result in significant implementation and ongoing costs not disclosed upfront
RAD Studio
- Professional edition costs $2,000 for the perpetual license plus $599 for year one maintenance, totaling $2,599 before tax
- Enterprise edition steps up to $3,400 license plus $1,199 maintenance, and Architect edition to $4,416 license plus $2,183 maintenance
