Questions to ask Setmore before you sign

  • Is SCIM provisioning included, or a paid add-on?
  • Which plan includes audit logs, and how long are they kept?
  • Where is our data stored, and can we choose the region?
  • Can we sign your standard DPA without changes?
  • What will the price be at renewal, and is the increase capped?

Questions are listed where Setmore's public pages leave the answer open.

Pricing page is internally inconsistent: a table row shows Pro at '$125 user/month', which looks like a typo. Treat the $12 as the probable monthly price, unverified.
