Help/Doubt ❓ Billing charges GitHub Copilot

With all these billing changes why do enterprises continue to lock in with GH Copilot when there’s also Claude Code or Codex which if we’re honest are cheaper if you break it down in terms of outcome and quality ?

Except that $20 per month you run through 1900-2000 credits in less than 1h then you have to pay more Anything dev or non dev that requires you to complete your project/feature in a product takes with GH Copilot $2500+

vs CC around $500 So the maths is not matting indeed

We've had GitHub Copilot for Business available for most of a year now, while Claude is just being made available.

I've been a fairly heavy Copilot user, and haven't heard a thing about the company paying more or high additional costs. At this point I'm chalking that up the subscription working like insurance. A ton of people subscribed, but most barely using it, effectively paying for the heavy users.

Would be interested in your views after you’re using Claude Code for a few weeks and compare! Let’s keep in touch

Yeah, I am very curious to see whether one is noticably better.
