Per-User Subscription Pricing

This ERP uses named-user or concurrent-user licensing. You pay a monthly or annual fee for each person who accesses the system. Cost scales directly with headcount — adding users increases your subscription. Most cloud ERPs use this model. Negotiating based on committed user count and contract length typically secures better rates. Be sure to understand which users need 'full' access vs 'limited' access, as vendors often price these tiers differently.
