The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Attest pricing is metered by credits, where one credit equals one survey question answered by one person, rather than a flat per seat rate; Florence eBinders pricing is set against how much your sponsors are expected to reimburse rather than a rate card, so two similar sites can pay materially different amounts and neither has a public benchmark to negotiate against.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Attest

  • Pricing is metered by credits, where one credit equals one survey question answered by one person, rather than a flat per seat rate
  • The Basic tier caps usage at 50,000 credits; going beyond it requires upgrading to Standard (100,000), Elite (200,000) or a custom plan above 400,000
  • Additional credits purchased mid year cost 10 percent more per credit than the plan rate

Florence eBinders

  • Pricing is set against how much your sponsors are expected to reimburse rather than a rate card, so two similar sites can pay materially different amounts and neither has a public benchmark to negotiate against.
  • It is site-side only: it does not do electronic data capture, study budgeting or full trial management, so a research office still runs a CTMS and an EDC alongside it and pays for the interfaces between them.
  • The benefit case depends on sponsors and monitors actually using remote access; if your sponsor mix insists on on-site source data verification, you have digitised the binder without removing the visits that made it expensive.
  • Migrating years of existing paper and scanned regulatory documents into structured, indexed binders is a substantial one-off project that sites routinely underestimate and that is scoped and charged separately.
  • Adoption is heavily United States centred, so a European or Asian site will find fewer sponsors familiar with the platform and less mature alignment with local regulatory expectations than a domestic site enjoys.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Attest: How does Attest's credit system work?

Attest uses a credit-based pricing system where one credit equals one survey answer from one respondent. For example, a 10-question survey completed by 500 people uses 5,000 credits. Only respondents who meet survey criteria consume credits from the qualifying question.

Source
Florence eBinders: Is this an EDC system?

No. It manages the site regulatory binder and source documents. Trial data capture is a separate system such as Medidata, Castor or REDCap.

Attest: What plans does Attest offer?

Attest offers four subscription plans: Basic (up to 50,000 credits), Standard (up to 100,000 credits), Elite (up to 200,000 credits), and Custom (over 400,000+ credits). All plans include unlimited user seats, designated research expert, customer success team support, and access to 150+ million consumers across 59 countries in 70+ languages.

Source
Florence eBinders: Who normally pays for it?

The site buys it, but sites commonly recover the cost through per-study sponsor budgets, and Florence prices with that expected reimbursement in mind.

Attest: Can I purchase additional credits on Attest?

Yes. Additional credits are available as add-ons throughout the year. Add-on credits cost 10% more than the per-credit rate in annual plans.

Source
Florence eBinders: Does it support 21 CFR Part 11?

Yes, with electronic signatures, audit trails and access controls. Validation for your intended use is still your responsibility.

Florence eBinders: Can sponsors see our documents?

Only what you grant through SiteLink. Documents stay under site control rather than in a sponsor-owned repository.
