I'm confused by the pricing. Is it $10 a month for up to 10 users and then additional $5 per new user?
Can this be connected to Active Directory?
The examples on the front page: "how do I connect to our database", "what kind of email templates do we have". Are these questions that you're going to get multiple answers for and I'm going to upvote the best and/or select one as the "selected" answer. I would think this would be a sign of dysfunction in most cases. And how does the gamification play into it? (maybe it's a secret bus-factor detector.)
It seems like a regular wiki/knowledge base would be a better fit for this kind of knowledge. How would the SO structure help.
A related note, I wonder if you can disable the "Soup Nazis"[1] feature or it's too deeply embedded in the psyche of the product.

Sorry for the confusion. Your assumption is correct. $10 month total for the first 10 users (so, regardless of whether you have 3 users or 9 users, it's still $10/month). And then $5 per new user after that.
This is an interesting play but doesn't seem like a good fit. The examples on the front page: "how do I connect to our database", "what kind of email templates do we have".

Earlier quoted context omitted.

thanks I know you're probably targeting larger companies but for small teams there's a big difference between $10 a month and $5 per user per month :p
Atlassian's "Questions for Confluence" is only half the price. https://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence/questions
I find JIRA and Confluence to be uncomfortably slow, even on high end hardware. I recall SO took a "scale up" approach but hopefully they can do better.

Unfortunately for folks like me down in the trenches, the manager types typically have more sway when it comes to picking products like this. Expanding the Atlassian license to include one more product probably sounds much easier to them.
However, the $1.65 per user difference in price is likely not going to be a deal breaker for these decision makers if it can be shown that StackOverflow, the clear dominant player in Q&A, has a superior product.
