How that compares in Technology
Too few technology tools in this directory publish a starting price to quote a meaningful median, so the table below is a like-for-like list rather than a ranking.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Eclipse (this page) | Free | - | - | |
| Checkmk | On request | subscription | - | vs Eclipse |
| Asana | Free, then $10.99/month | - | - | vs Eclipse |

| Apache Spark | Free | open-source | - | vs Eclipse |
| Attio | $29/month | subscription | - | vs Eclipse |

Ratings are aggregated from third-party sources and imported with each catalogue entry, they are not reviews hosted on Softwr. How each figure is used is set out on the Eclipse badges page.
Before you pay for Eclipse
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: not published on the record we hold. Because there is a free tier, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to use it before paying anything.
Eclipse runs on windows, macos, linux, and is published by Eclipse Foundation of Ottawa, Canada. The full record is on the Eclipse review, and the rest of the category is under best technology tools.
