How the numbers work
How is the comparison calculated?
GoHighLevel total = plan price × months. Seedly total = $1,599 once + your monthly hosting × months. Break-even month = license ÷ (plan price − hosting).
Why are SMS and email costs left out?
Both platforms bill messaging per use: GoHighLevel through its own usage billing, Seedly through your own Twilio and email accounts. Similar volume costs similar money either way, and on Seedly you can rebill it to clients at a markup.
What hosting number should I use?
Seedly estimates $0 to $20 a month for a new install on free tiers and quotes $25 to $200 a month as typical for running agencies. $50 is a sensible middle figure for a small agency.
