Read from krystal.io/cloud/pricing. “First two years” assumes the advertised term, then the renewal rate. Where a price is not printed we leave it blank rather than estimating one.
PRICING VS VALUE
Read from Krystal's own pages, never estimated. When a business bills by usage or only by quote, there is no single price to state, so the meter and what makes a bill grow are shown instead.
