Concerning pricing, setup cost, and licensing, our experience was very smooth as we chose not to go through the AWS Marketplace but arranged meetings directly with StrongDM. Their team was prompt, and I can say that the pricing and licensing appeared reasonable for complex cloud management. We needed a good product and solid sales service post-purchase, which they provided efficiently and adequately. We compared their offerings with other tools in the market, agreeing on an annual license basis. The setup cost was free, with technical staff aiding our onboarding, requiring us only to cover the license fee.
My thoughts on the pricing of StrongDM is that it is expensive. Coming from knowing the landscape of the market, it is not that they are not competitive. They are still very expensive. That does not mean they are not expensive. Their pricing model is per seat, so that is per user, and it is pretty steep. I do not think that it is any different from any other PAM provider of this caliber.

The licensing is per user per month. It's pretty close to the same or in line with all of the other pricing for tools that do similar things.
