Savings proposal
Google Analytics is free, so self-hosting Umami won't save money: it costs about $132 a month to run plus $480 to set up. Teams switch to own their data, not to cut costs.
List price: Google Analytics Google Analytics (standard), billed monthly. Standard Google Analytics is free (Analytics 360 is quote-based), so switching is about owning your data, not saving money. Source, checked 2026-10-07.

Assumptions you can change
Self-hosting Umami usually means one small container and a database. Hours are for one engineer; the server cost is a typical cloud VPS with backups and grows with the number of people using it.
Not included: paid editions or features of Umami (see What's free?), large data migrations, and compliance work. All amounts in US dollars at list price; your negotiated price may differ.
