Shop Server (on-prem)

Shop Server Defense
optional continuity plan $99/mo
The whole system on a box we ship you. Runs on your LAN, works with the internet unplugged, you own it outright. Includes 12 months of updates.
You own it; no subscription required. The Defense build adds mirrored SSDs, a UPS, customer-held backup keys and a hardened configuration designed to support NIST SP 800-171 controls.
For the shops that won't — or can't — put their data in someone else's cloud: ITAR work, unreliable internet, or plain principle.
Floor Kiosk
~$249 each for 3+ · kiosk apps are free BYO
A rugged-cased Android tablet, pre-configured in locked kiosk mode with mount and charger. Scan one QR code and it's on your shop floor.
Or bring your own: the kiosk app is free on any iPad or Android tablet. ~$249 each for 3+.
What this category actually costs
| Option | Real cost | The fine print |
|---|---|---|
| Spreadsheets + whiteboard | “Free” | The real price: evenings spent quoting, 45 min/day of whiteboard shuffling, and tribal knowledge that walks out the door with people. |
| Traveler Cloud — $109/mo flat | $1308/yr | Everything included: quoting, travelers, floor tracking, traceability, the full compliance suite, unlimited users, free kiosk apps. No implementation fee. |
| Per-seat cloud ERP | $6,000–$15,000+/yr | Published entry tiers for this category run roughly $500–715+/month, plus 5–10-user minimums and implementation engagements that commonly start around $10K. |
| Legacy shop ERP (per-seat + implementation) | $10K–$100K year one | Per-user licenses, paid training, consultant-led setup — and the quote is behind a sales call. Shops of 14 report ~$4K+/month all-in. |
| Quality/QMS software alone | ~$310+/mo | The cheapest credible small-shop quality tool costs more by itself than all of Traveler — compliance included. |
Competitor figures are from published pricing pages, review-site listings, and owner-reported costs in public forums (2024–2026). We name no vendors here; the numbers are the category's, and they're easy to verify.

Get early accessPricing questions
▸Can I cancel any time?
Yes — cancel in one click, no retention flow, no phone call. And the full-export button works on your way out; your data was never hostage.
▸What happens if I stop paying the Shop Server continuity plan?
Nothing bad. The box keeps running everything, forever. You stop getting updates, off-site backups, and off-LAN phone access until you resume.
▸Are there per-user fees, ever?
No, and this is a commitment, not a launch promo. Per-seat pricing punishes shops for letting everyone use the system — which is the whole point of the system.
▸Are there hidden fees?
No. Kiosk hardware and the Shop Server are the only things that cost extra, they're optional, and their prices are on this page.
