Becoming a registrar costs ICANN $3,500 to apply and $4,000 a year to stay accredited, before a single registry contract — and the wholesale fee underneath every .com is a fixed pass-through to Verisign that nobody, at any scale, gets to undercut. The only lever here is which registrar you pay.

The bar under each price is what running your own copy would still cost every month, against the subscription it would replace — a nearly full bar is a tool whose upkeep eats the saving. “Cheaper options” are the least expensive tools that do the same job, priced at what they actually cost you — a free self-hosted tool is charged for its servers and half the upkeep of an equivalent from-scratch build, not $0\. Same category is not the same feature set: check the comparison before you migrate. Tools billed per seat are multiplied by the team size above, because the replacement you build serves everyone at once — that is the number the verdict is really comparing against.

## One tool at a time is the easy question

The harder one is what all of it costs together, and whether replacing the whole stack ever pays back. Add the tools you actually pay for and find out — including the maintenance hours nobody puts in the estimate.
