How much does ImageSite® cost?

ImageSite pricing depends on various factors, including the type of implementation, the number of users, and licensing type.  eQuorum is dedicated to maintaining highly competitive pricing, which is why ImageSite costs a fraction of our leading competitors’ prices.  Smaller engineering organizations have the right to use the same productivity tools as the larger companies, so pricing has to be appropriate for all sized organizations.

We understand a document management system is used in part to reduce costs by improving the productivity of your workers.  Most companies have a positive return on investment within the first year, making the system enticing for organizations looking to better manage engineering design costs.
