PRODUCT PRICING
Flexible pricing models to ensure affordability
Pay-Per-Learner
The pay-per-learner model is also often called pay-per-seat. The principle is simple: you pay a fixed price for a certain number of learners added to the system. The benefit of this pricing model is that you can easily predict your monthly and yearly expenses for the learning management system.
Pay-per-learner prices are tiered: as the number of users goes up, the rate goes down. The amount of learners is usually calculated per month or year.
| Number of Learners | Rate per Month |
Rate per Year 25% Discount, if paid annually |
|
|---|---|---|---|
| For Teachers Take your class online | 1 - 25 Users | $39 | $348 |
| For Small Institutes Take your institute online | 26 - 100 Users | $129 | $1,188 |
| For Medium Sized Institutes Take your school/college online | 101 - 500 Users | $259 | $2,388 |
| For Large Institutes For multi-campus institutes | 501 - 1000 Users | $459 | $4,188 |

Pay-Per-Active-Users
Pay-per-active-users pricing allows you to add an unlimited number of users to the LMS; you’ll only be charged for the ones who logged into the system during the pay period.
The one thing you should know before committing to this model is that the price is usually bundled. For example, let’s say you expect to have 250 active users each month, so you choose the corresponding plan. Even if you don’t hit 250 but have, say, 200 users, you’ll still have to pay for 250.
The per-active-users pricing model is convenient when you need to train different groups of learners each month, for instance, if you’re a large coaching center and need to train your students. Plus, you don’t need to worry about inactive accounts, as you won’t be charged for them anyway.
| Number of active users | Rate per User/Month | Rate per Year | |
|---|---|---|---|
| For Small Institutes Take your institute online | 100 Users | $3.66 | $4,386 |
| For Medium Sized Institutes Take your school/college online | 300 Users | $3.00 | $10,794 |
| For Large Institutes For multi-campus institutes | 500 Users | $2.82 | $16,944 |

Less fuss with registration

Semester wise breakup
It’s for courses that are repeatedly offered but to newer students every time.
Pay-As-You-Go
The cost of this pricing model is directly linked to its usage. You pay little in off-peak times, but may have to pay only when the number of users increases.
This model can benefit those who sell their e-courses, as this model guarantees that costs go up only during periods of increased revenue. This way you can be sure that you’ll always be able to afford the change in price.
Advantages
Control
Just pay for what you choose. If all members become inactive - you won’t be charged.
Scaling
Price only goes up when usage increases
License Fee/Subscription
You buy a periodic license for Parhako, pay a set annual fee, and add as many users and courses as you want.
The price depends on the number of features included in the package. With each upgrade, new functionality is unlocked. It’s absolutely necessary to know which features you need. It is recommended for large educational institutes who are looking for one time payment and do not want to worry about the number of students/courses or classes. You would have the option to set up servers locally with you. You can also rebrand it the way you like while being “powered by Parhako”
Advantages
No Surprises
You don’t waste money on inactive/ghost students.
Flat Charges
You don't have to keep topping up your account with credit if you add new user.
Unlimited or Almost Unlimited Users
You don't have to worry about number of active or registered users.
How to Choose the Best Pricing Plan?
The variety of pricing plans may look like a confusing minefield of number of users, courses, and features. Before committing to a purchase, follow our instructions to work out the right plan that meets your needs.
Step 1: Tally up the users you plan to train
Before opting for a certain plan, figure out how many learners will use the system during a billing cycle, say, a month. Will this amount be stable throughout the year?
Step 2: Determine how long the Parhako will be used by each user
Will all your users be the same people, or will they come and go? If you plan to use the product for onboarding courses only, the total amount of active users may be stable, more or less, but the users will be different.
Step 3: Estimate how many courses you’re going to teach
In many cases, Parhako cost is based on the number of uploaded courses and space needed for data storage. If you conduct training regularly throughout the day, then look for a provider and a plan with a high or unlimited data storage allowance.
Step 4: Define essential features and integrations
Before opting for a certain plan, figure out how many learners will use the system during a billing cycle, say, a month. Will this amount be stable throughout the year?
