Pricing Model Comparison
Both platforms handle mobile forms differently. Here's how they compare on pricing:
DIGI CLIP: Flat Per-User Model
Starting at A$4.50 – A$5.50/month per user (Plus and Compliant plans).
Each user gets:
- Up to 60 active forms
- Unlimited form submissions (no overage fees)
- Photo capture, GPS tagging, offline capability
- Action Register for defect tracking
- Compliant plan includes Safety Tracker WHS module
Example: Team of 5 = A$17.50–A$27.50/month total, plus unlimited form submissions.
ProntoForms: Submission-Based Model
Pricing varies based on plan tier and submission count.
Submission costs typically range depending on plan selected. For detailed current pricing, see ProntoForms pricing page.
Scaling consideration: Submission-based pricing grows with field team activity and data volume. A team collecting 500+ forms per month may experience higher costs than per-user alternatives.
Key Difference: Per-User vs Per-Submission
DIGI CLIP's per-user model means your 5-person team can submit unlimited forms without additional cost. With ProntoForms, submission volume directly impacts licensing cost. For data-heavy operations, per-user pricing may be more cost-predictable.
Why Teams Choose DIGI CLIP Over ProntoForms
Purpose-Built for WHS
ProntoForms is a generic mobile forms platform. DIGI CLIP is specifically designed for Australian workplace safety. Defect tracking, action management, incident reporting, and compliance workflows are built-in, not added via third-party integrations.
Unlimited Submissions, Flat Rate
Pay per person, not per submission. Add a crew member for A$3.50–A$5.50/month and they can submit 1,000 forms without additional cost. No surprise scaling costs.
Australian Safety Expertise
Built by safety professionals with 15+ years in Australian WHS compliance, NHVR transport standards, and workplace safety. Our platform templates and workflows align with local regulatory requirements.
End-to-End Compliance
Capture field data with mobile forms, then automatically trigger actions in the Action Register. Generate audit-ready compliance reports without manual compilation or external tools.
Real-World Example: Construction Site Inspection
From Paper to Digital Compliance
A mid-sized construction company managing multiple sites was using ProntoForms to capture daily site inspections. They switched to DIGI CLIP and discovered they could use the same 5-person safety team to handle:
- Daily site safety inspections and photo evidence
- Hazard identification and defect logging
- Incident reporting and investigation
- Toolbox talk records and attendance tracking
- Contractor WHS induction sign-off
Result: One unified platform instead of ProntoForms + separate safety software. Reduced compliance reporting time by 40%. Lower licensing costs compared to ProntoForms enterprise tier.
Illustrative example based on typical customer outcomes. Actual cost savings and time reductions depend on your submission volume, team size, and existing ProntoForms plan tier.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can DIGI CLIP do everything ProntoForms does for mobile forms?
Yes. DIGI CLIP has full mobile form capabilities — custom form builder, photo/signature capture, GPS location tagging, offline submission, and real-time sync. The key difference is DIGI CLIP adds WHS-focused workflows (action tracking, safety modules, compliance reporting) on top of basic form capture.
How does DIGI CLIP's pricing compare to ProntoForms?
DIGI CLIP operates on per-user pricing: starting at A$3.50–A$5.50/month per user with unlimited form submissions. ProntoForms uses submission-based pricing. For detailed ProntoForms costs, see their pricing page. The per-user model means DIGI CLIP is often more cost-predictable for teams with high submission volumes.
Can I use DIGI CLIP for generic forms or just WHS?
Both! DIGI CLIP's up to 60 forms per user can be for anything — site inspections, equipment maintenance, customer surveys, field audits, incident reports, or general data collection. You're not locked into WHS workflows.
How does action tracking work?
Every form submission can trigger an action in DIGI CLIP's Action Register. Your team identifies a hazard on a site inspection form, and it automatically becomes a tracked action — assigned to a team member, due-dated, and followed up until closure. ProntoForms would require external integration to achieve this workflow.
Does DIGI CLIP include WHS compliance features?
Yes. Our Compliant plan includes Safety Tracker — a dedicated WHS compliance module with automated audit trails, compliance reporting, and incident management. This is included in the pricing, not a separate add-on.
What support is included?
Email support is included with all DIGI CLIP plans. For onboarding and form setup, contact our team to discuss implementation assistance and training packages.
Is there a free trial?
Yes — 14-day free trial with no credit card required. You get full access to all features, offline capability, form creation, and action tracking.
