What OneTrust says about price

No figures. TPRM pricing is 'based on admin users and third-party inventory' for both the Third-Party Risk Management Base and Third-Party Management Suite packages; no amounts are published. Its Azure Marketplace plans say the listed price is “for illustrative purposes only” and should be transacted by private offer. For every TPRM price that is public, see what TPRM software costs.

Why buyers look elsewhere

The reasons the alternatives below answer: a product built only for third-party risk; security ratings of the vendor’s own rather than partner feeds; a suite already in the building; a smaller budget; or AI doing the reading. OneTrust’s own pages are the source for everything said about it here.

If you want a dedicated TPRM tool: 7 alternatives

You want a dedicated TPRM tool rather than a module of a privacy and governance platform: deeper assessment workflows, shared assessment exchanges, or someone to run the assessments for you.
