testing quote

Traditional penetration testing is quoted per engagement. A consultancy scopes the work, prices the days, and you wait for a slot — typically R50 000 to R150 000 for a single assessment, booked weeks out. You pay the same again next year.

PentestMe prices on a subscription instead, because the testing is continuous rather than annual. Published plans start at R3 449 a month for two pentests, and cover web, API, network, cloud, email and VoIP under one scope. Most teams never need a quote at all — the standard plans are on the site, and your first pentest is free.

A custom quote makes sense when the engagement does not fit a plan: a large or unusual scope, multiple business units, a manual red-team component, contractual security requirements, or procurement that needs a formal proposal. That is what this form is for.

Quotes are priced on scope and depth — how many targets, which surfaces, whether authenticated testing and exploitation are in scope, how often testing runs, and what reporting or compliance evidence you need.
