How this calculator works

This tool estimates your potential savings from switching to a licensed CPMS instead of continuing with a SaaS subscription. It uses your current network size, projected growth rate, and software costs to model how those expenses scale over time. Based on that, it compares the total cost of ownership under both models and shows your potential ROI.

How calculate

Why use a licensing model for EV charging networks?

Unlike SaaS, license costs don’t rise linearly with the number of chargers.

You pay more upfront, but over time and growth, the model is significantly more cost-efficient while giving you full ownership of the platform.
