The short version

Each has a real cost: Cin7 Core transaction limits vary by tier; exceeding included sale orders or integrations requires additional cost; Icertis the value comes from structured clause and metadata models, and building those is legal and commercial work your own people must do, so a project resourced as an IT deployment stalls at the point where somebody has to decide what the standard clauses actually are.

Icertis

The value comes from structured clause and metadata models, and building those is legal and commercial work your own people must do, so a project resourced as an IT deployment stalls at the point where somebody has to decide what the standard clauses actually are.
This is priced and scoped for large enterprises, so an organisation with a few thousand straightforward agreements pays for capability it will not configure and would reach most of the same benefit with a lighter mid-market product.
Implementations run in quarters rather than weeks once integrations to CRM and ERP are in scope, and the business case usually assumes benefits that only start after the historic contract population has been migrated and tagged.
Migrating legacy contracts means extracting terms from signed PDFs, and automated extraction needs human review to be trustworthy, so the backlog of old agreements is a labour cost that is routinely left out of the initial estimate.
The platform is built on Azure with its strongest integrations in the Microsoft stack, which is an advantage inside a Microsoft estate and a source of friction for an organisation standardised elsewhere.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Cin7 Core: What is the base price for Cin7 Core?

Cin7 Core pricing starts at $349 per month for the Standard plan, which includes 5 users, 2 e-commerce integrations, and up to 6,000 sale orders per year.

Source

Icertis: How is this different from storing contracts in SharePoint?

A document store answers where the contract is. CLM answers what is in it. If your questions are about locating files, a document store is enough. If your questions are portfolio wide, such as total exposure to a clause type or which agreements renew next quarter, you need the terms as data.

Cin7 Core: How many users and integrations are included in each plan?

Standard includes 5 users and 2 integrations; Pro includes 10 users and 4 integrations; Advanced includes 15 users and 6 integrations. Additional users and integrations are available for extra cost.

Source

Icertis: Do we need a legal operations team to make this work?

In practice yes, or someone doing that job under another title. The system enforces decisions about standard language, approval thresholds and acceptable deviation, and if nobody owns those decisions the workflow becomes an approval queue with no rules behind it.

Cin7 Core: What happens if I exceed my included number of sale orders?

Standard plan allows 6,000 sale orders per year, Pro allows 24,000, and Advanced allows 120,000. Exceeding these limits incurs additional charges; exact fees for overages are not specified on the pricing page.

Source

Icertis: What does it compete with?

SAP Ariba contract management, Coupa, Conga, DocuSign CLM, Sirion and Agiloft, among others. The split is roughly enterprise depth against mid-market speed, and Icertis sits firmly at the enterprise end.

Cin7 Core: Is there a free trial available?

Yes, Cin7 offers a free trial option, though the specific trial duration is not detailed on the pricing page.

Source

Icertis: Is contract data extraction from legacy agreements automated?

Partly. Extraction tooling gets you a draft set of fields, but anything you intend to rely on for a legal or financial decision needs human verification, so budget for review effort proportional to the size of your back catalogue.
