How much does Pendo cost?

Pendo does not publish its prices. Pricing is quoted on request, across 5 plans (Novus, Pendo Free, Product Analytics and Session Replay), so the figure depends on your seat count and requirements. We record this as a pricing-transparency signal rather than guessing a number. Pricing changes often, so verify at source before relying on it.

What platforms does Pendo support?

We have confirmed browser-based access to Pendo. That is the extent of what we could verify from public sources, so it may well offer desktop or mobile clients we have not indexed.

Source: https://www.pendo.io/pricing/

Can Pendo be self-hosted?

We have only confirmed a cloud / SaaS deployment for Pendo, so it appears to be vendor-hosted. If a self-hosted option exists we have not found it documented publicly.

Source: https://www.pendo.io/pricing/

What does Pendo integrate with?

We have confirmed 50 integrations for Pendo, including Algolia, Amazon S3, BigQuery, Breadcrumbs, Calendly, Candu, Catalyst and ChurnZero, plus 42 more. This is what we could verify from public sources, so the vendor may support others we have not indexed.

Source: https://www.pendo.io/pricing/

What security certifications does Pendo have?

We have independently confirmed SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA and GDPR for Pendo. Certifications we do not list are ones we have not been able to verify from public sources, which is not the same as Pendo not holding them. Always confirm compliance directly before you rely on it.

The vioscaleAI score: one lens on the evidence

Not user reviews and not a paid placement: a confidence-weighted blend of the independent signals below (adoption, activity, security posture, and more), which you can sort and re-weight yourself. Vendors can correct their listing but can never move their rank, and stars are weighted low as a vanity metric. It is one way to read the evidence for Pendo, not the verdict.
