Spire for SBT Pro, ACCPAC Pro and Sage Pro ERP – What does it cost?

I have promoted Spire Systems to you, my SBT Pro Series, ACCPAC Pro and Sage Pro ERP clients, in a series of emails and phone calls as a suitable upgrade. Some of you are interested. Those who are ask, “Matt, how much does Spire cost?”

In enterprise software sales school, we are taught to deflect this question towards a discussion of value so that, when the price is finally revealed (deep in the sales cycle), the “value proposition” overwhelms the sticker shock. This approach never made sense to me. My view is that I should reveal a realistic estimate of cost as soon as I can. If the price it too high, we end the sales campaign and not waste each other’s time. With that in mind, I will tell you what Spire costs as best I can.

The typical SBT Pro Series, ACCPAC Pro and Sage Pro ERP user paid between $10,000 and $30,000 for their system depending on the number of modules and users. For larger companies, it was more, for smaller companies, less. Also, you paid me, or someone like me, consulting fees for support, customizations, reports, integrations and other services.

So, what does Spire cost? See what Spire and the larger Spire project costs.

Spire is great ERP software at a great price.
