Server Automation Runs Limits

As part of renewing our server, Alteryx is indicating there is a new licensing model based on "Automation Runs" and offered up 15,000 runs as the standard package, which seems very low.  This equates to about 40 workflows that run each day, which immediately puts us near the limit without accounting for test runs or new workflows (don't even calculate something running multiple times an hour).  We are new to Server and we are trying to understand if we have a large number of workflows scheduled vs other orgs and if we are doing something differently than they are to minimize automations (which seems counter productive).  Has anyone else gone through a renewal at the new pricing structure and have a framework for how to think about this?

Hey guys, we also have now the new pricing model. I also think that Alteryx is doing somthing in the wrong direction. Me and my team host 50 Workflows on the server with a total run of 356.000 in a year. I mean this is the idea of alteryx non the less...to automate everything you can or not. Now thy are creating a barrier to do that. 

Furthermore, thy do not give you the right tools to reduce the runs, as if you want to run a workflow everyday from Monday till Friday for each hour you can not limit it to a given working time, for example just between 6am till 6pm. This Workflow runs than also in not working hours and as well on weekends. Makes of course no sense....no value for us as a company just value for  Alteryx. I am really unsatisfied how this change is going on. And the worst, they sale it as the consumer wants to have a consumption based invoicing....@Alteryx please rethink your way. At least build the right tools! Thanks
