Adept can run on a customer's own infrastructure or as Adept Cloud, a managed SaaS platform. On-premise named-user plans start at $12 a month, billed $144 per named user/year. Adept Cloud Essentials is $1,400 a month, billed annually, with 20,000 assets included and a mandatory $10,000 onboarding fee for new customers.
