The short version
- Each has a real cost: CorePlan pricing is usage based on plods or shifts and billed annually with overage calculated monthly, so an intense drilling quarter generates an unbudgeted overage invoice, and finance teams that need a fixed annual number will struggle to get one.; Cority EHS no pricing published: customers cannot evaluate cost-to-value before demo or sales engagement
- They diverge on capability: CorePlan covers Digital plods, Cority EHS covers Incident management.

Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
CorePlan
- Pricing is usage based on plods or shifts and billed annually with overage calculated monthly, so an intense drilling quarter generates an unbudgeted overage invoice, and finance teams that need a fixed annual number will struggle to get one.
- Only the Starter tier price is published; Professional, Enterprise and Corporate are all quote only, so comparing CorePlan against a competitor requires entering a sales process before you know the number.
- Core modules are unbundled: field operations, advanced analytics and custom forms are separately priced add-ons that each start in the hundreds of dollars per month, so the realistic monthly cost is well above the advertised entry price.
- It is a drilling operations system, not a geological database or modelling package, so it must sit alongside acQuire, Datashed or equivalent and the integration between them is a project rather than a switch.
- The customer base and support depth are concentrated in Australia and the company is small and venture funded, which means teams in the Americas or Africa get thinner local implementation support and carry the usual supplier concentration risk on a system that sits in the middle of drilling spend.
Cority EHS
- No pricing published: customers cannot evaluate cost-to-value before demo or sales engagement
- CorityOne platform depth hidden: modules (Reporting & Analytics, Cortex AI, Learning Management, myCority Mobile, Document Control) lack feature-to-price mapping
- Sales-gated access: must contact sales or request demo to learn if platform fits budget
- Multi-module complexity: unclear which EHS+ capabilities are included per tier or if all modules cost extra

Answered from the vendors’ own pages
CorePlan: Is CorePlan a geological database?
No. It manages drilling operations, plods, scheduling and sample dispatch. Geological data still lives in acQuire, Datashed or similar.
Cority EHS: Does Cority publish pricing for their EHS+ platform?
No. Cority does not disclose pricing tiers, fees, or subscription costs on their website. Customers must contact sales or request a demo to discuss pricing.
SourceCorePlan: Can drilling contractors use it too?
Yes, and that is the point. Contractors submit plods on the same platform their client uses, which removes the invoice reconciliation argument.
Cority EHS: What modules are included in Cority's CorityOne platform?
Cority offers modules including Reporting & Analytics, Cortex AI, Learning Management, myCority Mobile, and Document Control, but whether these are included in base pricing or cost separately is not disclosed.
SourceCorePlan: What does it actually cost?
Starter is 1,350 US dollars a month for one project and two rigs, billed annually. Everything above that is quoted, and the analytics and field modules add several hundred dollars a month each.
Cority EHS: How do I get pricing for Cority?
Contact Cority's sales team via their 'Contact Us' link on the website or request a demo consultation to receive pricing information.
SourceCorePlan: Does it work without mobile signal?
Yes, field capture works offline and syncs when the rig comes back into coverage.
