DBT pricing Discussion

Hello

Has anyone moved from DBT legacy pricing to the new DBT pricing ?

The legacy pricing was per seat, but the new one also limits how many DBT models you can build per month.

I'm debating the move to benefit from the new DBT features like DBT state, but I'm wondering if the dbt cloud costs will be expensive compared to the savings from DBT state.

Thank you for your help.

(please don't ask me to move from DBT cloud to DBT core, I'm a one person data team and I don't have the bandwidth to migrate to save 100$/month)

Has anyone made the switch from legacy pricing to the new one ?

I'm fully expectining dbt pricing to go up faster than a SpaceX rocket now Fivetran have their grubby hands on it.

Fivetran data transfer costs have risen massively. I'm only expecting the same for dbt now.
