Taken from 123insight.com/pricing as it read on 4 October 2026. These are 123Insight’s own published figures, quoted and not interpreted. Pricing pages change; check theirs before you rely on this.
Our published terms
What Keystone Publishes
Keystone is priced per month, including one factory site, and the figures are on the page rather than behind a form. Core £595, Factory £995, Connected Factory £1,595. Enterprise is priced on application. All exclude VAT.
Office users are named and counted, with an allowance on each plan — five, ten and fifteen, with Enterprise agreed — and further named users at £30 each per month.
Shop-floor users are unlimited on every plan.
Implementation and data migration are scoped and quoted after a discovery session. We do not publish a figure because the work depends on the state of your part numbering, bills of material and stock records.
Hosting, updates and support are in the subscription.
Full detail on the pricing page, and how MRP software is charged for generally in the pricing explainer.
The difference that matters
Where The Two Models Diverge
Published Against On Request
We publish three figures and say openly that the fourth is on application. 123Insight asks you to book a demonstration. Neither approach is wrong, but they cost you different amounts of time before you know whether a system is affordable.
What You Can Compare Today
Without a published figure there is no price comparison to make, and we are not going to invent one or repeat a number from a third-party directory as though it came from them. If you have been quoted, compare the quotation with Keystone’s subscription, implementation and additional-service costs on the same basis.
Ask For The Basis, Not Just The Number
When a quote arrives, the basis matters more than the total: per user or per site, who counts as a user, whether the shop floor is chargeable, and what happens at renewal.
Implementation And Data Migration
Implementation and data migration sit outside a licence figure almost everywhere. Ask what they cost and what the estimate depends on.
Due diligence
Compare Costs And Capabilities
- 1.
Count the people who would need a login, and split them into office and shop floor. On a per-user model the shop-floor count is usually what decides the bill; on a per-site model it does not enter into it.
- 2.
Ask each vendor what an operator booking on to a job costs. Get the answer in writing, because it is the single number most likely to change the comparison.
- 3.
Put every figure on the same basis before comparing: same currency, same period, VAT stated or excluded consistently.
- 4.
Ask what implementation and data migration cost, and what has to be true for that figure to hold.
- 5.
Ask what happens at renewal, and whether any annual increase is capped in the agreement.
