Design: Usage-based pricing #774

Closed paolodamico closed 3 years ago

paolodamico commented 3 years ago

As discussed in https://github.com/PostHog/ops/issues/67, we'll launch a new pricing strategy more similar to other SaaS companies. As such we need to think of a new design for the cloud section of the pricing page, and discuss implementation later.

As a side note, I would consider the possibility of going back to cloud vs. self-hosted (i.e. dropping the OSS distinction) to simplify things a little bit more. Let's look at the data here too :)

Could I possibly have some examples of how other companies deal with this layout in a successful way - I think my lack of tech language/knowledge is holding me back here. Alternatively I can look at our competitors (mixpanel, amplitude etc) to see how they structure this

For additional context, we played with the pricing page for my Superday and one of the things I tried to tackle was reducing from 3 tabs to 2, specifically for the sake of simplicity.

Figma mocks (You can click between the Self-hosted and Cloud tabs.)

This doesn't tackle the usage-based pricing aspect (nor is the actual design anywhere near up to snuff), but figured I'd share the above mocks for how we may be able to reduce from 3 tabs to 2.

Re @lottiecoxon, absolutely! here are a few examples that come to mind,

Re @corywatilo, this is great, and I think this is a great opportunity to bundle all changes and implement them together!
