For an estimate, our current clients typically pay between $6,000 and $12,000 per plant per year, plus a one-time implementation fee of about one-third of the first year's subscription. Where you fall in that range depends on the number of users and forms you have and how much setup is involved. Call us at +1 (215) 310-9740 or contact us for an exact quote.
