Paid plans start at €41.67/mo. There's also a free plan.
SOGo has a free Community plan, while paid support starts at €41.67 per month equivalent on Sponsorship. That is €500 prepaid for a year, not a monthly bill. Silver is €125/month equivalent (€1,500 yearly), Gold €416.67 (€5,000 yearly), and Platinum €625 (€7,500 yearly). The pricing page lists support, incident and consulting allowances, but does not publish seat or usage caps. Treat the paid prices as support budgets, not published per-seat prices.

02What the plan grid doesn't tell you
Annual prepayment
Paid tiers are prepaid for one year. Sponsorship costs €500 upfront; its €41.67 monthly figure is an equivalent, not a monthly bill.
Seat limits unpublished
The pricing information does not state Community seat or usage limits, so the free plan’s capacity is unclear.
Unused tickets don’t extend
The pricing page says unused tickets do not extend. Confirm how that applies to your contract before budgeting incidents.
Extra work not priced
Consulting costs are unpublished. Sponsored development also has no published price and requires Product Committee approval.
03Which plan should you buy?
| If you are… | Get | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Teams comfortable with self-support | Community | Free, with support via mailing list, FAQ and documentation. Seat and usage limits are not published. |
| Organizations wanting release access | Sponsorship | Costs €500 prepaid yearly and includes access to releases; consulting is upon request, with costs unpublished. |
| Teams needing incident support | Silver | Includes 10 incidents and four-business-hour acknowledgement for €1,500 prepaid yearly. |
04Is SOGo worth the money?
SOGo is worth considering when an organization wants open-source groupware based on standard protocols and is prepared to manage a server. Its paid tiers add release access, incident support or consulting. The value is less clear for teams expecting a turnkey office suite or predictable per-seat pricing: the published prices are for prepaid annual support, while seat limits and some add-on costs are not stated. Compare hosting and administration costs separately; the pricing information does not quantify them.
