Is ten_cubed worth running as a client service?

Evidence supports ten_cubed as an open-source, PostgreSQL-based bounded social graph primitive that agencies can implement as a managed service, with published time_to_value of hours and medium setup complexity. What remains unknown is any vendor pricing tier, client price, labor rate, usage cost, and expected volume, all of which the agency must supply before ROI can be modeled.
