People bring Roku in for tv streaming, content discovery, free entertainment. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Roku are worth a look before you commit to a tier.
Before you pay for Roku
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: a single tier at Free. Because there is a free tier, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to use it before paying anything.
Roku runs on roku-devices, smart-tv, ios, android, and is published by Roku Inc of San Jose, CA. The full record is on the Roku review.
