The price is average. SOTI manages the price according to the type of client they have. I would rate the cost as five out of ten.

The price in Europe, the US, and the UK isn't the same as in Africa because companies aren't making big incomes. Sometimes, they ask us to reduce the price, but it depends because we have many types of companies. The way African companies use the solution isn't the same as big companies with 3,000 employees or 30,000 mobile devices.

Some clients have between 250-5,000 mobile devices, so we can manage the price of the solution for those people.

The product is reasonably priced at the moment.

We purchase the solution's yearly license. There are additional costs if you want to use extra features. For example, I have a printing license on the Microsoft platform. If I had to use printing in SOTI, it would have charged me extra cost.

I rate the product’s pricing a six out of ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive.

On a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price, and ten is a high price, I rate the pricing a five.

It's a yearly subscription for three years. It is quite expensive.

The solution is not expensive.

SOTI is fairly priced. It's not super expensive. If you have a thousand devices that are licensed, it's going to start climbing up in price. Typically, it's like 25 bucks a seat for a year. There is also is a maintenance cost to it. It's like seven bucks for tech support. So it's right around 30 dollars on average per seat.

SOTI's pricing seems to be competitive.

We were trying to negotiate with our account manager previously, in terms of pricing, and he was able to lower it by $500 if we were to renew our license for another year, but he wasn't able to give any bigger discount than that, even with us using it so frequently. My suggestion would be, if it's a customer who's worked with SOTI and wants to continue to work with SOTI, and they have so many licenses already - we have at least 350 licenses already - I would hope that they could do more deals. What our account manager told us was, unless you purchase another 200, we can't give any bigger discount. And I was thinking, "Well, I have no need to just buy 200 licenses." Every time we purchase a license it's a lot for our small start-up already.

That's one of the reasons, right now, that we're on the fence if we want to continue our partnership with SOTI: because the price couldn't be lowered. If they're able to provide packages for, say, 50 licenses, to give a slighter discount, that would better, because the 200 is just not ideal for a company that's a start-up. If they're working with Google, sure, give them 2000 licenses. But for smaller companies, I hope SOTI has something that they can provide.

It's a little bit expensive. The Hong Kong government has a perpetual license for SOTI rather than a subscription.

It's a reasonably priced tool for what we're using it for. To be fair, I don't have much to compare to. But being in IT for 20 years, I thought it was really reasonable. When you take into consideration the maintenance cost on it, it's is very low. There's a one-time license fee for a device. But you can call support under standard support, which I had up until about two months ago, and it has been excellent. All that updating I mentioned was done under our standard license.

The cost is different, depending on if you are using cloud or on-premises deployments. 

There is a bit of a high cost. They don't have standard versus premium so we are paying a bit more since we don't have the choice to choose a lower tier.

It is an expensive product. I would rate the pricing a ten out of ten, with ten being very expensive, especially in emerging markets. 

Many competitors are coming in much cheaper, making it challenging to convince clients to choose SOTI over other MDMs.

SOTI MobiControl is a budget-friendly solution. Users have to pay a yearly licensing fee for SOTI MobiControl.

The pricing is reasonable and the licensing model is very reasonable when compared to some of the competitors in the market. I can speak directly regarding Intune, which is very expensive compared to SOTI. I would recommend SOTI. I think SOTI is also more affordable than MobileIron. SOTI is well-situated in the marketplace, from a commercial standpoint. SOTI is definitely a more commercially reasonable solution than others that are out there.

SOTI MobiControl is a cheap solution. You have to pay a yearly licensing fee for SOTI MobiControl.

We have annual licenses to use this solution.

It makes sense to have scanners on SOTI MobiControl, but it makes less sense to have printers because there are fewer features for them, while the price is the same for both. If they had a lower license fee for printers, we would probably want to purchase those. But since it's the same cost, no matter what kind of device it is, we've opted out of doing printers. There are just not enough features to really justify it.

The price of this solution is high when you compare it with Microsoft Intune. This is mainly because Microsoft Intune is included with some packages, such as Microsoft Office 365. It makes it difficult to sell SOTI MobiControl because of the pricing against Microsoft Intune.

The solution costs approximately seven dollars a month.

I rate the price of SOTI MobiControl an eight out of ten.

They've been pretty flexible with us, because we've changed the way we do our licensing a few times. We did a yearly, and then we went back and we did a quarterly, and I think we're back to yearly right now.  We've been able to work stuff out and pricing has gone down since the onset. We've got a better rate per device and it's reasonable. The licensing cost from SOTI usually doesn't scare anybody away, once it's explained.

Pricing is okay, but when you buy your renewal of licenses - at the end of the period or the year - if you have a lot of devices, obviously, it's going to increase. In the end, it's kind of expensive.

Original setup cost for this device was $24,000 AUD initially with software assurance and support on annual renewal. It has now grown with our devices to around $80,000 AUD annually, leaving at it costing us $220 AUD a day to run.

I thought pricing was kind of high, but I believe that SOTI is probably the best out there for this type of software, so there's not much I can do about that.

The licensing is annual, per device.

There are solutions that can be more aggressively priced, but they may not provide all that SOTI does. It's a matrix regarding what feature you use. You need to compare the features you use and what you are willing to pay for them. You may have MDMs that have half of what SOTI provides. They are cheaper but you have less.

SOTI's pricing is okay. It's in the middle. But pricing is a subtle issue. They can provide more aggressive pricing once you start to have a lot of licenses. They have volume discounts and can be very competitive.

We will continue to use SOTI because the cost is cheaper than VMware Workspace ONE AirWatch.

Its pricing policy is not stable. The licensing is on a one-yearly, two-yearly, or three-yearly basis. There is no monthly fee.

The licensing works on a subscription basis.

Licensing is fine. We're notified a few months prior to renewals.

There are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees.

The original setup cost was US$3K on training, licenses and hosting.

The day to day cost its around US$2.5 per device monthly.

The solution that we were using costs less, but it didn't offer as much as Soti. It's comparable if you look at it over the five-year term.

The product is less expensive than Intune.

I prefer the cloud option. The cloud team is always alert.
