The plans
What Preservica charges
Preservica Professional and Enterprise are quoted privately and billed annually. Your bill is built around the preservation service, including storage capacity, processing, metadata management, access and integrations.
Professional
Quoted privately
The annual quote covers a managed preservation service, including storage capacity, ongoing file transformation, metadata management, user roles and permissions, and listed integrations.
Enterprise
Quoted privately
Enterprise pricing is quoted privately and billed annually.
How the bill is built
Annual subscription
Professional and Enterprise are billed annually, with prices quoted privately. Use your own contract or renewal quote to understand your annual commitment, rather than treating a historical fee from another organisation as your current price.
Storage capacity
Professional includes a stated storage capacity. Check the size of your current collection, expected growth and storage arrangements against the allowance in your quote.
Preservation processing
Professional lists ongoing file transformation as part of the service. Consider which formats in your collection need this work when comparing the quote with an owned version.
Metadata, access and integrations
The paid service includes metadata customisation and management, user roles and permissions, and catalogue and workplace integrations. Confirm which of these your archive uses and what your quote includes.
A year of Preservica
Your annual Preservica bill
Professional and Enterprise prices are quoted privately and billed annually, so there is no current public yearly total to apply to your New Zealand or Australian invoice. A historical UK committee record lists GBP 15,250 per year, but it is not a current vendor quote or a local customer bill. Your quote covers needs such as storage capacity, ongoing processing, metadata management, permissions and integrations.
Underneath the bill
What you are really paying for
Managed preservation work
You are paying for a managed preservation service, not just a place to list files. Professional includes ongoing file transformation, so consider which formats in your collection need that work when comparing an owned version.
Capacity for original files
The Professional service includes a stated storage capacity. That allowance matters alongside your collection size and growth, so check it against the storage arrangements your archive needs.
Tools around your archive
The service also includes metadata customisation and management, user roles and permissions, and catalogue and workplace integrations. These support how people administer and access your collections.
The owned alternative
An owned version for your records
Enterprise DNA builds your digital preservation version around how your business runs, brings your Preservica data across and runs the version for you. Your records sit in a database you own, and you can work with it in plain language without per seat plans. The arrangement is one setup fee followed by a monthly retainer. If you prefer to operate it yourself, a free version is available.
