Agiloft vs Icertis Pricing for Small Legal Teams

Short answer. Neither Agiloft nor Icertis publishes a CLM price, but the signed-contract data points in different directions. Vendr tracks Agiloft deals in a narrow band of $62,629 to $80,344 a year (median $67,132), while the two Icertis purchases it tracks sit at $48,360 and $169,890. Icertis can come in cheaper on a narrow scope and far more expensive on a broad one, and buying guides put its first year at $100,000 to $300,000 with implementation. For a legal team under 20 people, neither is priced for you, and the realistic comparison is with tools that scale down.

Both are enterprise contract lifecycle management platforms sold through a quote. Agiloft is a no-code, highly configurable CLM owned by KKR. Icertis is built for Global 2000 procurement and sales contracting and reported about $300 million in annual recurring revenue at the end of 2024. They show up on the same shortlist because both promise to handle every contract type in one system, and because both appear near the top of analyst reports. The way they price that promise is different, and that is where a small team should start.

Agiloft vs Icertis pricing side by side

The second row is the one to read slowly. A narrow band means Agiloft deals look alike, so a quote far outside $62,000 to $80,000 deserves a question. A wide spread means Icertis deals depend on scope, so the quote you get will say more about what you asked for than about Icertis.

Which is cheaper, Agiloft or Icertis?

On the license alone, it depends on scope. The lowest Icertis contract Vendr tracks, $48,360 a year, is below the lowest Agiloft contract, $62,629. The highest, $169,890, is more than double Agiloft's highest. Once implementation and training are added, buying guides put Icertis year one at $100,000 or more, which is above almost every Agiloft year one we can model.

So a narrow Icertis deployment, for example sell-side contracts only, can undercut Agiloft on the license line. A broad deployment across procurement, sales and legal will not. Two Icertis data points are thin, which is why the spread is the useful signal and the midpoint is not.

Agiloft's band is narrow and Icertis's spans 3.5 times

This is the part most comparison pages skip. Agiloft's highest tracked contract is about 1.3 times its lowest. Icertis's is about 3.5 times. In practice that means the Agiloft quote is mostly a function of users and modules inside a fairly standard package, while the Icertis quote is a function of how many business units, contract types and integrations you put in scope.

The often repeated "$88,000 median Icertis contract, Vendr 2025" does not help here. We could not find it on Vendr's public Icertis page, which shows the two purchases above. Treat it as an unverified estimate, and do not anchor a negotiation on it.

The three-year row assumes no price increase, which is optimistic for any enterprise renewal. Ask both vendors for a written renewal cap before you compare these columns.

Is Agiloft or Icertis better for a small legal team?

For a team under 20 people, usually neither. Icertis is designed for global enterprises with complex procurement and sales processes, and its implementation alone is sized for that. Agiloft is more approachable, a Leader in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for CLM according to Bind Legal, and its no-code configuration suits teams with unusual workflows. But its lowest tracked contract is still above $62,000 a year.

The realistic finalist at small scale is often Ironclad. Vendr reports an Ironclad median of $40,110 a year across 371 purchases, with contracts as low as $15,000. Our Agiloft vs Ironclad pricing comparison runs that head-to-head, and the Ironclad pricing page has the full Vendr breakdown.

Which is more accurate at finding risky clauses?

There is no independent public benchmark that compares Agiloft, Icertis and Ironclad on risk clause identification. Each vendor publishes its own claims, and analyst reports score features, not detection rates. Anyone who tells you one is more accurate is repeating marketing or a single customer's experience.

You can measure it yourself in a pilot. Take 20 signed contracts where you already know the problems: an uncapped indemnity, an auto-renewal with a short notice window, a missing data protection clause, an assignment clause that survives a change of control. Load the same set into each tool. Count what each one misses, what it flags that is not a problem, and whether it cites the page and clause so a lawyer can check it in seconds. Ten minutes per contract of attorney review on the results will tell you more than any vendor deck.

Agiloft Astra is the only price either vendor prints

Agiloft sells Astra, an AI contract assistant that works inside Microsoft Word, on a public price list at agiloft.com/astra. The Free plan is $0 a month with 1,000 credits. Pro Annual is $120 a month, with credit options from 2,500 up to 40,000 a month, and reviewing and redlining in Word use no credits. That makes Astra a fair option for a lawyer who wants AI help on agreements in Word and does not need a repository or approval workflows. Icertis has nothing comparable you can buy without a call. More detail is on our Agiloft pricing and cost per year page and the Icertis pricing page.

After signing, the money is in making sure counterparties stick to the deal. Teams that track supplier contracts often pull the line items out of supplier invoices and check them against the contracted rates, which is a job neither CLM does well out of the box.

Questions to ask both vendors on the same sheet

• What is the annual license for our user count and contract volume, as two separate numbers?
• Which modules are in the quote, and which features in the demo are add-ons?
• What does implementation cost, who does it, and how many weeks until the first contract goes live?
• What is the renewal cap for years two and three, in writing?
• Can we run a pilot on 20 of our own contracts and score clause detection before we sign?
• What are the integration fees for our CRM, ERP and e-signature tools?
• What happens to our data and our configuration if we leave?

Put the answers in two columns and compare the three-year total, not the year one license. Our Agiloft competitors list and the AI legal software pricing comparison give you more columns to add.

When the real backlog is unread contracts

Many small teams that start a CLM search have a simpler problem: supplier paper and customer agreements arrive faster than anyone can read them. A CLM organizes contracts. It does not read them for you on day one, and Agiloft or Icertis will take weeks to months to implement.

LegalSoul does the reading. Upload an agreement and get the issues, risky clauses and missing terms with page cites in under a minute. It is not a CLM: there is no repository, no approval workflow and no obligation tracking, and it has no SOC 2 report or SAML SSO today. It costs $99 a month for 100 reviews with no annual term, and the first review needs no account. That covers the backlog while you decide whether a $67,000 to $170,000 platform is worth it.
