# JumpCloud pricing explained: packages, modules, and the annual-billing discount

Prices as published by JumpCloud, July 2026 — always verify current pricing with the vendor. Last updated July 2026.

Quick answer

## How much does JumpCloud actually cost per user?

Short answer

**JumpCloud's published packages run $9–$13 per user/month billed annually (about $2 more monthly), with à-la-carte modules mostly at $3/user/month — bundling directory, SSO, MFA, and device management in one bill.** Figures reflect JumpCloud's published pricing as of July 2026 — verify with the vendor.

## What are JumpCloud's published prices?

JumpCloud sells both fixed packages and individual modules. The table below summarizes the published structure as of July 2026; exact figures change, so treat these as budgeting anchors, not quotes.

Package / product

Published price\*

What to know

Device Management (package)

$9 annual / $11 monthly

Cross-OS device management (MDM) centered package.

SSO (package)

$11 annual / $13 monthly

Identity-centered package: SSO plus supporting directory capabilities.

Device Identity Management (package)

$13 annual / $15 monthly

Combined device + identity package.

Platform / Platform Prime / Essentials

custom

Quote-based suite bundles; Platform Essentials published with a 300-user max.

À la carte modules (Cloud Directory, MFA, SSO, lifecycle, password mgmt, LDAP, RADIUS, etc.)

mostly $3 annual / $4 monthly each

Passwordless is published higher ($5/$6); MDM at $5/$6.

Premium support

$2–$3/user/mo

Separate published line item on top of product pricing.

\*Per user/month, as published by JumpCloud (July 2026) — verify with the vendor. Annual billing is consistently ~$1–$2/user/month cheaper than monthly.

## Package or à la carte?

The à-la-carte model is JumpCloud's most distinctive pricing feature: if you only need, say, Cloud Directory plus RADIUS for Wi-Fi auth, two $3 modules beat any package. The crossover point arrives fast — around three to four modules, the $9–$13 packages become the better deal, and they're simpler at true-up.

For a 150-person company on the SSO package (annual), published pricing works out to roughly $19.8k/year list. The comparison that matters is usually not JumpCloud vs another IdP alone, but JumpCloud vs an IdP _plus_ a separate MDM — that bundle math is where it wins mid-market deals against [Microsoft Entra](/compare/jumpcloud-vs-microsoft-entra) and [Okta](/alternatives/okta).

## What are the pricing gotchas?

-   **Monthly billing premium:** published monthly rates run ~$1–$2/user/month above annual across packages and modules — a real cost if you're avoiding commitment.
-   **Module sprawl:** à-la-carte looks cheap per line, but modules add up quietly; re-price against packages whenever you add one.
-   **Platform tiers are quote-based:** the full-suite bundles (Platform, Platform Prime) have no published price — anchor negotiations on the published per-module sum.
-   **Premium support is extra:** $2–$3/user/mo published on top of product pricing; factor it in for like-for-like comparisons with vendors that bundle support.

## Frequently asked questions

### How much does JumpCloud cost per user?

JumpCloud publishes packages at $9 (Device Management), $11 (SSO), and $13 (Device Identity Management) per user/month billed annually — roughly $2 more on monthly billing — plus à-la-carte modules mostly at $3/user/month annual, as of July 2026. Platform-tier bundles are custom-priced. Verify current pricing with JumpCloud.

### Is JumpCloud's à la carte pricing cheaper than the packages?

Sometimes. Individual modules (Cloud Directory, MFA, SSO, lifecycle, password management, LDAP, RADIUS) are each published at $3/user/month annual as of July 2026, so a narrow two-module deployment can undercut a package. Stack four or more modules and a package usually wins. Model your actual module list before choosing.

### What's in JumpCloud's custom-priced Platform tiers?

Platform Essentials (published with a 300-user maximum), Platform, and Platform Prime are quote-based bundles of the broader suite. As with any custom tier, get the per-module list-price sum in writing first so you can see the actual discount being offered.

### When is JumpCloud cheaper than Okta or Entra?

JumpCloud bundles directory, device management (MDM), and identity in one per-user price, so it tends to win on total cost for SMB/mid-market teams that would otherwise buy an IdP plus a separate MDM. For enterprises already licensed for Microsoft 365 E3/E5, Entra's marginal cost is hard to beat — compare against what you already own.
