Why teams switch

## Why people look for an Umami alternative.

1. ### Overage billing

   Umami Pro charges $0.00003 for each event above its allowance.

2. ### Properties count as events

   Umami Cloud counts each stored event property as usage, so richer events cost more.

3. ### API and MCP need Pro

   Umami’s API and MCP access start on Cloud Pro.
