ARR to End User or MRR to End User (AEU or MEU)

Enterprise SaaS companies use this metric to evaluate the value add of their service if the pricing is based upon the end-user count. The calculation is simply the ARR or MRR divided by the active end-user count. If a service is priced correctly, the price per user will indicate the actual cost of the solution for your customer. The greater the number of active end-users, the lower the customer’s cost per seat. Which means a higher degree of engagement and a higher value add. Take special care in defining an active user as one would when doing so for the DAU/MAU calculation.
