## Commercial Context

- **Starting Price**: €190.00
- **Pricing model**: Flat Rate
- **Pricing Details**: Substly’s pricing is designed for small and mid-sized businesses that need results without "enterprise bloat". We believe SaaS management should be accessible, which is why our model is transparent and scales with your organization.  &#10;&#10;&#10;Pricing Tiers&#10;Substly offers two main plans based on your management needs, along with tailored solutions for larger or more complex environments.  &#10;&#10;&#10;1. Monitor — Visibility and Governance&#10;&#10; - Starting at: €95/month (billed yearly).&#10; &#10; - Best for: Companies that need to get a grip on their SaaS sprawl and shadow IT.  &#10;&#10; - What you get: Automated multi-source discovery engine, shadow IT monitoring, contract and cost management, and automated renewal alerts to prevent unwanted charges.  &#10;&#10;&#10;2. Optimize — Active Savings and Security&#10;&#10; - Starting at: €190/month (billed yearly).&#10;  &#10; - Best for: Organizations looking to actively reduce costs and tighten security protocols.&#10;&#10; - What you get: Everything in the Monitor plan, plus advanced features like unused license detection, individual-level usage monitoring, M365 license optimization, and streamlined employee offboarding workflows.  &#10;&#10;&#10;3. Custom Plans — For Complex Needs&#10;&#10; - Pricing: Contact Sales for a tailored quote.&#10;&#10; - Best for: Companies with multiple AD tenants, subsidiaries, or those requiring custom API integrations and advanced reporting analyses.&#10;&#10;&#10;Information for Prospective Buyers&#10;&#10;Yearly Discount: All plans include a 20% discount when billed annually.  &#10;&#10;No Hidden Fees: We have no cancellation periods or hidden termination fees—stay as long as you’re happy.  &#10;&#10;Rapid Implementation: Most companies are up and running in less than 30 minutes. &#10;&#10;The Substly Advantage: Unlike enterprise tools that require you to pay for expensive "Enterprise-tier" SaaS plans to access management APIs, Substly uses an innovative browser extension and IDP sync to monitor usage on any plan.
