# Why are EDI costs going up while service is getting worse?

Legacy EDI providers are raising prices while cutting support staff and moving to ticket-based models. The root cause is consolidation: fewer competitors means less pressure to improve.

The good news is modern cloud-based alternatives have broken this model with transparent, flat pricing, no contracts and full human support.
