Docebo pricing: cost per user, the quote model and 2026 vendor comparison

Docebo does not publish a price list. Quotes are built from your active-user count and product tier, and third-party data puts the effective rate near $7 to $10 per active user per month, with total cost of ownership commonly starting around $25,000 a year.

Here is how Docebo pricing works in 2026, the add-ons that land outside the per-user line, and how a flat published per-seat rate compares.

Why teams pick CompanyLMS

One platform for courses, onboarding, compliance and certifications

What Docebo actually costs

Docebo prices per active user under a custom quote. Public estimates cluster at $7 to $10 per user per month, and reported enterprise deals include roughly $70,000 a year for 1,000 users. The figure you receive depends on tier, user-counting model and which add-ons you buy.

The add-ons that move the total

AI authoring, advanced analytics, the mobile app and extended enterprise portals are separate line items, and January 2026 added consumption credits for advanced AI. A quote that looks reasonable per user can climb once the modules you actually need are added back in.

Why the counting model matters

Docebo lets you buy Monthly Active Users, Yearly Active Users or Registered Active Users. The same headcount can cost very differently across the three, so model your real login pattern, including a compliance-deadline spike, before you compare Docebo to a flat per-seat rate.

Good questions

Docebo vs CompanyLMS, answered

Docebo does not publish list pricing. Quotes are built from active users, product tier (Elevate or Enterprise) and add-on modules, with third-party estimates near $7 to $10 per active user per month. Total cost of ownership commonly starts around $25,000 a year and reaches six figures for large deployments, plus AI consumption credits introduced in January 2026.

Docebo offers a guided demo and, at times, a limited trial arranged through sales rather than a self-serve free tier. There is no permanently free plan. Because pricing is quote-based, most buyers go through a two to six week evaluation before they see a number.

Docebo uses custom, quote-based pricing tied to your active-user count and one of three counting models: Monthly Active Users, Yearly Active Users or Registered Active Users. Advanced capabilities such as AI authoring and analytics are add-ons, so two companies of the same size can pay very different amounts.

Docebo is priced as a premium enterprise platform with a minimum contract commonly around $25,000 a year. Much of that reflects depth (configurability, integrations, analytics) that companies under about 1,000 employees rarely use in full, which is why smaller teams often look for a simpler, published-price option.

Yes. Published per-seat platforms cost far less for SMB and mid-market teams. CompanyLMS charges a flat $4 to $7 per learner per month with no implementation project or consumption credits, so a 200-person company pays a few thousand dollars a year instead of a five-figure enterprise quote, while still getting onboarding, compliance and certification tracking.

CompanyLMS publishes a flat per-seat rate ($4 Team, $7 Business, $6 billed annually) with a 25-learner minimum, so you can budget before talking to sales. Docebo quotes per active user under a custom contract with add-ons, so its total varies with headcount, counting model and usage.
