| Card to start | –Not measured | –Not measured |
| Getting access | Self-serve | Self-serve |
| Starter priceCheapest paid plan | $15/mo | $24/mo |
| Pricing model | Tiered | Flat rate |
| Pricing page | Public prices | Public prices |
| Billing unit | Flat per plan with a monthly response allowance; unlimited seats and forms | Flat per plan; unlimited forms, submissions and team members under fair use |
| Free option | Free plan: 1,000 responses a month, unlimited forms and seats, Fillout badge | Free plan: unlimited forms and submissions under fair use, Tally branding |
| Reference scenario (1,000 responses/mo, no branding, annual) | $40/mo on Pro ($480 a year), computed | $24.17/mo on Pro ($290 a year, shown as $24/mo), computed |
| Month-to-month price | $49 on Pro ($19 / $49 / $89 for Starter, Pro and Business) | $29 on Pro ($29 / $89 for Pro and Business) |
| At the response limit | Forms keep collecting; upgrade or wait for the reset, and repeated overage can lead to limits | No plan cap; sustained use over 50,000 submissions a month leads to a custom plan |
| Branding removed | Pro ($40/mo billed yearly) and up; Starter keeps light branding | Pro ($24/mo billed yearly) and up |
| Payments and file uploads | Every plan; no Fillout fee on payments; 20 MB per file below Business | Every plan; Stripe with no Tally fee; 10 MB per file on Free |
| SOC 2 / ISO 27001 | SOC 2 Type 2 compliance stated; ISO 27001 not stated | Both listed as in progress on the roadmap |
| HIPAA BAA | Not stated | Not offered |
| EU data hosting | Team plan ($250/mo billed yearly) and Enterprise, switched by support | All form data stored in Europe, every plan |
| SSO | SAML on Enterprise | Not listed |
| Response export | CSV export and REST API on every plan | CSV download and the API on every plan |
| Bottom line | From its public pages, Fillout pairs a 1,000-response free plan and unlimited seats with integrations and the API on every plan. Removing branding takes Pro at $480 a year, and several pages disagree on refunds, cancellation and hosting regions. | From its public pages, Tally gives the most for free: unlimited forms and submissions with logic, payments, uploads and the API, and Pro adds a whole team for $290 a year. Its security certifications are still in progress, and HIPAA and SSO are not offered. |
