Replaces

Replace eight tools.

Illustrative only. Built from published UK list prices for a representative tool in each category — Dext, Veriphy, Inform Direct, GoProposal, GoCardless, DocuSign, Spotlight Reporting and BrightManager — including their published volume discounts, and excluding VAT. Several vendors in these categories publish no pricing at all, and most firms negotiate a discount. Treat this as the start of the conversation, not a quote.
