Element451 pulls Total Cost figure from its pricing calculator
What happened
Between the Sep 7, 2026 and Sep 14, 2026 captures of Element451's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Pricing calculator no longer shows a computed 'Total Cost' figure. Same inputs (1,000 students, Dedicated Support, Element for Marketing & Admissions) now show only a 'Your Selections' recap with no price. Pulse files it as a pricing change (price hidden) with a downward direction.
It lands 73 days after Element451's previous change, "Element451: pricing model overhauled to Bolt-vs-Element product lines" (Jul 2, 2026). Element451 has been tracked since 2026-04-15.
In the same window Salesforce and Recruiterflow also changed their CRM pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
