- Cloud solution for monthly subscription
We have modeled our price after the number of reports and how much customization is required. A rough idea about the price to be around $500 per report type. We are open to monthly or annual subscription models. So if you have 7 reports in your company then the cost should be $3000-$4000. Or we can amortize is to be $100 per month on a two year contract. You can discuss with Sales for a better costing model depending on your requirements.
We usually pack all information into the client hosting to deploy a copy. The database management is another name for a custom solution that is hosted on the cloud privately for each client. We have the knowledge for a monthly/annual subscription model as well.
