Alternatives by price

Who this fits

Drata is best for growing startups and mid-market to enterprise organizations that need to automate complex compliance frameworks (like SOC 2 and ISO 27001) while managing vendor risk and security questionnaires in a single platform.

Notes

  • While Drata does not publish prices on its main website, its AWS Marketplace listing provides a benchmark of $25,000 for the Platform Fee and $7,500 per major framework.
  • Tiers are divided into two main categories: GRC Platform and Assurance Platform.
  • Pricing is not per-user but scales with the number of employees (FTEs), frameworks, and entities.
