Plans & Pricing
Every plan runs the same open-source platform. You are buying hosting, support, and time. What changes between plans is how many devices and how much storage the plan is sized for, where the servers sit, how much of our team's time comes with it, and, on Enterprise, how far the deployment is shaped to your institution, from single sign-on to branding.

Keeping your data safe
Each record saves to the device as you work, every device that syncs both ways holds a copy of every record, and editing or deleting a record adds a revision instead of overwriting the last one. How Fieldmark keeps your records safe.
The hosted service runs in an Australian data centre, data is encrypted in transit and backed up every day, and the platform has been penetration tested by an independent firm. How we protect your data.
Enterprise
Enterprise removes the fixed limits and fits the deployment to your institution: your identity provider, your cloud or ours, your branding, and an agreement your procurement and security reviewers can sign off.
Support
A 24-hour target response on business days, on every plan. Our team works in Australia, in the AET time zone, which is the same working day as most of the people who write to us. Response time is not a premium tier here.
Single sign-on
Fieldmark supports sign in with Google, with the Australian Access Federation (AAF), and with a Fieldmark username and password out of the box. Enterprise deployments can use other single sign-on configurations, including Okta, OIDC, and SAML.
Server location
Fieldmark is hosted in your preferred zone on DigitalOcean (e.g., Australia for Australian clients). Where a client requires it, we can deploy on AWS instead (may affect costs and default storage limits).
Self-hosted Enterprise: your infrastructure, our team
If sovereignty or internal policy means the system has to run inside your estate, Enterprise can be installed on your cloud or your own servers, and we support it there.
Buying
Invoicing, annual in advance, purchase orders accepted. Enterprise agreements are scoped to requirements: hosting model, support level, onboarding, and any custom branding.
Vendor security assessment
We have prepared a HECVAT, the higher education sector's standard security questionnaire for vendors, and supplied it to enterprise clients during procurement review.
Independent penetration testing, data handling, and hosting details are set out on the security page.
Questions
Is there a free version?
Fieldmark is built on FAIMS3, an open-source platform you can host and operate yourself if you have the infrastructure and the expertise: github.com/FAIMS/FAIMS3. A Fieldmark plan buys hosting, the published mobile apps, support against a response target, and the team's time.
Can we run it on our own infrastructure?
Two different answers, and the difference is who answers when it breaks. Self-hosted Enterprise puts the system on your infrastructure with our team supporting it, under an Enterprise agreement. Running the upstream FAIMS3 platform yourself is free and community-supported, but the operational work is yours.
What happens to our data if we leave?
You export it and go. Export is available at any time from the notebook's Export tab, in open formats including CSV and JSON, during an evaluation or on a paid plan.
Do you support single sign-on?
Yes. Google and AAF, the Australian Access Federation, on the standard service (including individual and team plans), alongside sign in with a Fieldmark username and password. Okta is integrated and running in production for a current deployment, and can be configured for any enterprise deployment. Other SSO integrations are possible, including OIDC and SAML; tell us which provider your institution uses and we can incorporate that into your enterprise deployment.
Where is data hosted?
In the DigitalOcean zone of your choice (e.g., in Australia for Australian deployments). Enterprise clients who require it can have Fieldmark deployed on AWS instead (may affect costs and default storage limits), and self-hosted Enterprise runs wherever your infrastructure is.
How is Enterprise priced?
Enterprise agreements are scoped to requirements: hosting model, support level, onboarding, and customisation. To get a figure for your situation, talk to us.
What if we need more than one Team, but not Enterprise?
Team subscriptions stack. A group that has outgrown one Team, but does not yet need an Enterprise agreement, can hold two or three Team subscriptions instead. Tell us how many devices and how much storage the work needs, and we will help you find an arrangement that fits.
What is the difference between custom branding and a custom application?
Custom branding is an Enterprise capability: your logo, your colours, and possibly an app published under your own name, running the standard Fieldmark product. A custom application is a software development engagement, where we build capability Fieldmark does not have out of the box, as a standalone system on the infrastructure of your choice.
How do we pay?
By invoice, annual in advance. Purchase orders are accepted, and we raise invoices to suit your finance system's requirements. Recurring monthly billing is available for individual and team accounts.
Need something built, not something branded?
Enterprise includes custom branding of the standard Fieldmark product. If what you need is a purpose-built standalone system, with your own application, your own infrastructure, and capability Fieldmark does not have today, that is a development engagement rather than a plan.
