Sweet! Thank you! If you're ever in Melbourne, FL, you can swing by & partake in he extra pizza you just helped us buy!

You could also stay at your day job for a day or two longer and save up for the $99 personal edition.

We have 8 people. That's $800 for license. Which by no means is crazy, but using atlassian products we're a little spoiled. You are right though. It would be very short sighted to say that's not worth the money.

Wishful thinking: We'd be willing to pay a higher price in the future since that would mean more pizza money for us now

In another startup that I was a part of, we were more than happy to pay the significantly higher price for Atlassian products once we grew past the 10 people limit.

Well, there's the 'Community Edition'. Unless you're heavily into WebDev, it's great.
