Savings proposal
A 25-user team on Asana Starter pays about $275 a month. Self-hosting Leantime costs about $132 a month to run plus $480 to set up, so it pays for itself in month 4 and saves about $4,659 over three years.
List price: Asana Starter, billed annually. Advanced is $24.99 per user. Source, checked 2026-10-07.

Assumptions you can change
Self-hosting Leantime 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 Leantime (see What's free?), large data migrations, and compliance work. All amounts in US dollars at list price; your negotiated price may differ.
