Research & Methodology Methodology, assumptions, and data sources for all cost estimates

This calculator covers US pricing only, based on independent market research (2025–2026). Even within the US, actual costs can vary by state — sales tax, local logistics rates, and regional carrier fees all shift the final number. Quotes also depend on contract terms and volume — contact each vendor directly for an exact figure.

Where the numbers come from

  • GroWrk Flex: Internal product pricing as listed on growrk.com — tiered per-seat fee ($10 / $8 / $7 by volume), with deployment, retrieval, and storage priced separately.
  • Deel IT subscription: Public per-seat pricing from Deel's IT equipment pricing page across Starter ($45), Growth ($125), and Scale ($133) tiers — no platform base fee. Hardware uses a 25% markup over the $1,600 base device price. Deployment and retrieval are billed per event.
  • Workwize subscription: Public per-user pricing across Basic, Pro, and Enterprise tiers (€14.50–€24.50/user/month entry rates) combined with sales-process research on the 150-seat minimum, 12-month contract, hardware markup, storage, and per-event logistics.
  • Plan includes: Feature lists shown in each vendor card were sourced directly from each vendor's public pricing page (growrk.com, deel.com/it, workwize.io) as of 2025. Plan-specific features for Workwize Basic, Pro, and Enterprise reflect their published tier breakdown.

How the calculator is built

  • A "workstation" is one MacBook Pro at a $1,600 base price, plus each vendor's applicable markup, configuration, support, and local duties/taxes.
  • Hardware unit cost combines the $1,600 base device with each vendor's markups. GroWrk ($1,900) and Workwize ($1,868) add local duties/taxes (~8.8%) plus a service fee (~8%). Deel IT ($2,000) applies a flat 25% markup over the base device price, which absorbs the vendor service fee and duties.
  • Deployment fee covers logistics, configuration, and service charges per unit deployed. GroWrk ($100) bundles base, insurance, shipping & handling, taxes, logistics, device configuration, and service fees. Deel IT ($207.25) stacks base + insurance ($15) + logistics (20%) + shipping & handling + taxes (8.8%) + service fees (25%). Workwize ($70) charges a flat US onboard rate.
  • Retrieval fee covers return logistics and processing per unit retrieved. GroWrk ($150) bundles base, insurance, carrier pickup, intake, device unlock, refresh, address revision, and service fees. Deel IT ($332) itemizes base + insurance ($15) + carrier pickup ($35) + intake ($32) + unlock ($10) + address revision ($30) + service fees ($10). Workwize ($105) charges a flat US offboard rate with packaging.
  • Platform cost uses each vendor's published model: GroWrk Flex applies a $449/month base plus tiered per-seat fee. Deel IT and Workwize use tiered per-seat pricing only — no base fee.
  • Plan-specific features for Deel IT (Starter, Growth, Scale) and Workwize (Basic, Pro, Enterprise) reflect each vendor's published tier breakdown.
  • EUR values are converted at 1 EUR = 1.08 USD. Storage fees are not included unless bundled by the vendor. Local duties/taxes always apply.
