About
You start by naming the subscription you want to replace, either through search or by browsing about a dozen categories such as Storage & Backup, Hosting & Deploy, and Scheduling. Featured tools show which subscriptions they replace and how they bill, and prices are checked by hand with a reminder to confirm on the vendor's site.
