At Washington State University we have committed to Pivot for two years to test its value to us, and are evaluating other options as well.    If someone wants to send me a separate note on what we are looking at, I am happy to oblige.

We've been informed the cost will increase significantly in future years and are exploring alternative options.

Hello,

Curious if anyone has had a drastic price increase in COS since it has become Pivot. We were informed that our subscription rate has more than tripled.

Thanks!
Maria
