Risk management software cost and risk management software pricing per year, vendor by vendor
Almost every risk platform is quote-only, so the first number most buyers see arrives after two discovery calls. Here are the brokered medians we could verify, the vendors with no benchmark at all, and what actually moves a quote, each with a source and a date.

How much does risk management software cost?
Risk management software for a mid-size US company usually costs between about $30,000 and $55,000 a year once you buy one of the GRC and integrated risk platforms, and a few thousand dollars a year if a compliance risk register is all you need. The platforms do not publish prices, so the most reliable benchmark is Vendr, which brokers real software contracts. As of October 2026 it reports a median of $53,784 a year for LogicGate, $33,808 for Onspring and $41,400 for Hyperproof, and about $46,000 for AuditBoard, now Optro.
The ranges inside those medians are wide, and that matters more than the midpoint. LogicGate contracts in Vendr's data run from $12,294 to $136,130 a year, and Onspring from $9,972 to $55,810. A buyer at the bottom of those ranges bought one application with a handful of power users. A buyer at the top bought several modules, often enterprise risk, third-party risk and compliance together, with dozens of licensed editors.
Some well-known names have no usable benchmark at all. Archer's Vendr page shows no contract value, Riskonnect has no Vendr listing, and ServiceNow prices its risk modules inside a broader platform agreement. A figure for those vendors in a software directory is an estimate without a source, so treat it as one and get a quote.
Complies publishes its price instead. The risk register is included from the Growth plan at $119 a month billed yearly, which is $1,428 a year, or $239 billed monthly, together with control mapping, evidence and vendor risk. It is a smaller product built for security and compliance risk, not an enterprise risk suite, and for a 5 to 200 person company that is often the whole requirement.
Complies assists with compliance workflows. It is not legal advice, and it does not certify you or guarantee audit outcomes. Your auditor decides; Complies gets you ready.
Three things that decide where a risk management software quote lands
How many risk programs you buy at once
Most integrated risk platforms are sold as applications or modules: enterprise risk, third-party risk, compliance, audit, policy, business continuity. Each one is a line on the order form. A buyer who only needs a security risk register and signs a three-module bundle is the most common reason a $15,000 problem turns into a $60,000 contract. Write down which program you are actually running before the first call.
risk register softwareLicensed editors versus read-only users
Quotes on the sales-led platforms usually depend on how many people can create and edit records, with cheaper or free access for people who only respond to tasks. Ask for the split in writing. A risk committee of eight that edits and a hundred control owners who only answer attestations should not be priced as a hundred and eight full seats.
control mapping softwareConfiguration and implementation work
The no-code platforms are flexible because someone has to build the workflows, the risk taxonomy and the reports. That work is billed as services, by the vendor or a partner, and it rarely appears in the license line a buyer compares. Ask for the implementation estimate and the renewal uplift alongside the license, because those two numbers decide year-two cost.
compliance reportsRisk management software pricing, vendor by vendor
Two kinds of figure sit in this table and they are not interchangeable. A published price is what the vendor states on its own page. A brokered median is what Vendr observed across contracts it negotiated, read on its public buyer pages on October 13, 2026. Where neither exists, the row says so instead of repeating a directory estimate with no source.
| Platform | What the vendor publishes | Brokered benchmark | What the money buys |
|---|---|---|---|
| Complies | $47, $119 and $299 a month billed yearly. Risk register from Growth at $1,428 a year | Not a benchmark. This is the list price | A scored risk register tied to controls, evidence and vendor risk for SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, GDPR and PCI DSS |
| LogicGate | No price published | Median $53,784 a year, range $12,294 to $136,130, average saving about 19% | No-code GRC applications for enterprise, cyber and third-party risk |
| AuditBoard, now Optro | No price published. The old pricing URL redirects to optro.ai/pricing, which shows no figures | Median about $46,000 a year, February 2026 | SOX, internal audit, risk and compliance modules sold as a suite |
| Hyperproof | No price published | Median $41,400 a year, range $22,215 to $70,000, 44 purchases | Compliance operations with risk register and control monitoring across 160+ frameworks |
| Onspring | No price published | Median $33,808 a year, range $9,972 to $55,810 | No-code GRC with risk, audit, vendor and policy apps |
| Abrigo | No price published | Median $9,056 a year across all Abrigo products, range $5,694 to $105,316 | Risk, lending and BSA tools for community banks and credit unions. The median is portfolio-wide |
| Archer | No price published | Vendr shows no contract value | Enterprise integrated risk management, usually with a services partner |
| Riskonnect | No price published | No Vendr listing found | Enterprise risk, claims and insurance, and healthcare safety programs |
Read the Complies row as a different category, not a discount. LogicGate, Archer, Onspring and Riskonnect sell enterprise risk management: key risk indicators, loss events, insurance and claims, board risk appetite and configurable workflows across the business. Complies does none of that. It runs the security and compliance risk register an auditor asks for under ISO 27001 clause 6.1.2 and the SOC 2 risk assessment criteria, which is where most companies under 200 people actually start. Compare these platforms feature by feature on LogicGate alternatives, Hyperproof alternatives, Archer alternatives and AuditBoard alternatives.
What the risk vendors and benchmark pages actually say, checked October 13, 2026
Directory sites often show a starting price with no product, module or date attached. These rows record what each source said when we opened it, so you can tell a measured number from a guess before it reaches a budget.
| Source | What it says | Figure | What it means for a buyer |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vendr, LogicGate | Median buyer price with low and high contract values and an average saving | $53,784 median, $12,294 to $136,130 | A real anchor for a LogicGate quote, and proof that negotiation moves the price |
| Vendr, Onspring | Median buyer price with low and high contract values | $33,808 median, $9,972 to $55,810 | Usable benchmark for a mid-market no-code GRC deal |
| Vendr, Archer | Contract value shown as N/A | None | No public benchmark. Budget from a quote and ask for the services estimate |
| optro.ai/pricing | Module list and an IDC savings claim, no tiers | None | The AuditBoard rate card circulating online no longer has a live source |
| Vendr, Abrigo | One median for the whole Abrigo portfolio | $9,056 median, $5,694 to $105,316 | Not specific to the risk product. Ask Abrigo to price the risk module alone |
Vendr's figures are contract values it observed while negotiating for its own customers, so they skew toward companies that use a buying service, and they move as new contracts are added. Treat them as a sanity check on a quote you already hold, not a price list.
What a risk register in Complies costs and covers, and what it leaves out
A price you can put in the budget today
Growth is $119 a month billed yearly, $1,428 a year, or $239 billed monthly. The risk register, vendor risk, control mapping and evidence are all on that plan. Scale at $299 a month adds roles, SSO, the audit log and custom frameworks.
A register that starts drafted
New workspaces open with eight starter risks a 5 to 200 person company carries almost by definition, such as account takeover through a phished credential and access left behind after someone leaves. You argue with credible scores instead of facing an empty table.
Risks tied to the controls that treat them
Each risk is scored on likelihood times impact, given an owner, and linked to its mitigating controls. As those controls are implemented and their evidence stays current, the residual picture changes with them.
Reviews that happen on a calendar
Quarterly and annual risk reviews are dated obligations with an owner and reminders. ISO 27001 auditors check that the register is alive, and a review nobody scheduled is the usual gap.
Vendor risk in the same system
Third parties carry a risk tier, their SOC 2 reports and questionnaires with expiry dates, and a review date, in the same system as the risk register. That covers SOC 2 CC9.2 and ISO 27001 A.5.19 to A.5.22 without a second tool.
What you give up, said plainly
No key risk indicators, no loss event database, no insurance or claims handling, no board portal and no configurable no-code app builder. If your board wants an enterprise risk program across finance, operations and safety, buy an integrated risk platform.
How to price risk management software in a week instead of a quarter
Name the program you are running
Security and compliance risk for an audit, enterprise risk for the board, third-party risk, or operational risk. Each one points to a different product shape, and a vague scope produces quotes that cannot be compared.
Count editors and responders separately
List who will create and change risks and who will only answer a task or an attestation. Ask every vendor to price that exact split, because seat definitions are where quotes quietly diverge.
Ask for three numbers in writing
The annual license for the modules you need, the implementation or configuration estimate, and the renewal uplift. Hold each quote against the Vendr median for that vendor where one exists.
Compare year-one cost, not the license line
Add the license, the services, and the staff hours the tool saves or does not save. A $1,428 register and a $50,000 platform can both be the right buy; the total for your scope tells you which.
Who this is for, and who it is not
A GOOD FIT WHEN
- You need a security and compliance risk register for SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA or PCI DSS.
- You were quoted $30,000 or more and suspect you are being sold modules you will not use.
- You want risks, controls, evidence and vendors in one system rather than four spreadsheets.
- You are a 5 to 200 person company and prefer a published price to a sales cycle.
- You want monthly billing instead of a multi-year enterprise agreement.
LOOK ELSEWHERE WHEN
- You need enterprise risk management with key risk indicators and loss events.
- You need insurance, claims or patient safety programs.
- You need a no-code builder to design your own risk applications.
- You need a board portal or risk appetite reporting for a large board.
- You need financial, credit or market risk modeling.
Questions buyers ask about risk management software pricing
For a mid-size US company, integrated risk and GRC platforms usually cost about $30,000 to $55,000 a year. Vendr reports medians of $53,784 for LogicGate, $41,400 for Hyperproof and $33,808 for Onspring as of October 2026. A compliance risk register costs far less: Complies includes one from $119 a month billed yearly.
A small business that needs a risk register for an audit or a customer questionnaire can usually spend a few thousand dollars a year or less. Complies publishes $1,428 a year on Growth. Enterprise platforms sometimes sign smaller deals, and LogicGate's lowest Vendr contract is $12,294 a year, but their products and services are designed for larger risk teams.
Because most of them sell configurable modules, and the price depends on which modules, how many editors, and how much implementation work you need. That makes a single list price hard to print. It also leaves the buyer without an anchor, which is why brokered contract data from Vendr is the most useful outside check.
Usually by licensed editors plus the modules or applications you buy, with lighter or free access for people who only respond to tasks. None of the large vendors states the formula publicly, so ask for the per-editor price and the responder policy in writing. Complies prices by plan, with 15 seats on Growth and 3 on Starter.
Implementation and configuration services, renewal uplifts, extra modules added mid-term at list price, and premium support. On no-code platforms the services line can be a large share of year one. Ask for the implementation estimate and the uplift cap before you sign, and compare total cost across three years rather than the first-year license.
For a handful of risks and one owner, yes. It stops working when reviews are missed, when scores drift without anyone recording why, and when nobody can show which controls treat which risk. Those are exactly the questions an ISO 27001 or SOC 2 auditor asks, which is usually when teams move to software.
Enterprise risk management software covers every kind of business risk: strategic, financial, operational and safety, with key risk indicators, loss events and board reporting. A compliance risk register covers security and regulatory risk, scored and linked to the controls that treat it. The second is what most audits require; the first is what large boards ask for.
