How much does an ERP system cost?
The real cost is not the advertised subscription alone. It is the sum of five components: the base subscription, the fee per additional user, the fee to unlock apps or modules, implementation and training, and support. Two systems with the same advertised price can differ twofold in annual cost once all five are counted.
At Snad: 0 USD for Starter, 39 USD per month for Basic, 99 USD for Pro, and 5 USD per month per extra user — with no implementation, training, or support fees.
The five cost components
Ask any vendor about these five before signing — not about the advertised price alone.
| Component | The question that reveals it | At Snad |
|---|---|---|
| Base subscription | Is the advertised price monthly or annual? Does it include VAT? | 39 USD per month for Basic and 99 for Pro, with annual billing saving two months |
| Additional users | How many users does the price include? What does the sixth cost? | Basic covers 3 users and Pro covers 5; extra users are 5 USD per month or 50 per year |
| Apps and modules | Are accounting, POS, and inventory inside the price, or is each an upgrade? | Every app is available on every plan — plans differ in how many run at once |
| Implementation and training | Is there a one-off setup, data migration, or training fee? | No setup or training fees — sign-up is self-service and you start immediately |
| Support | Is support included or a separate package? What are its hours? | Support is included on every plan, including the free one |
A worked example: a five-user business
The calculation below uses Snad's published figures, and you can run it for any other system across its own five components.
Billed annually: 990 USD per year — the cost of ten months rather than twelve.
Adding a sixth user brings the cost to 104 USD per month.
