>>>>Hi Nicko (and Tackaberry)-
Our base pricing for UBB is $4299. We offer substantial discounts for smaller organizations. Our pricing is not BASED on the size of an organization-- we are simply giving discounts for smaller groups so that it is more affordable for them (if you are listening closely you will understand the difference). That is fairly common practice... we just happen to give really nice discounts for the small groups.

Of course, we could simply charge everyone $4299, but because we want to empower the smaller groups we have given them excellent entry points for the UBB. I think it is fantastic that we offer individuals and small groups a UBB for as low as $249!

Is it fair that most software companies have discounts for "disadvantaged" groups (small company, educational, and government discounts are common)? Of course it is! It is great for the customers.

Feel free to email me if you need further clarification on this.
