Does managed travel fit, and which plan?

1. If travelers must search live inventory and book instantly on their own, a self-booking tool is likely the better fit. silentVIP doesn't offer live self-service search today: travelers request a trip and choose from the options our team sends.
2. If you want corporate cards or expense software from your travel provider, the finder says so. silentVIP has no corporate card or expense product. Bookings are billed to the company, charged to a company card or marked employee-paid, and employee-paid items go to your expense system as a file. If you want one vendor for cards, expenses and travel, Navan covers more ground (see our Navan comparison).
3. If you have more than 1,000 active travelers a month, or you need a custom service model, Enterprise, which is priced by quote.
4. If you want a named account manager, Managed. Managed and Enterprise clients have one; Essentials clients are served by a shared team, with a named lead through implementation.
5. If none of those apply, whichever of Essentials and Managed costs less for your volumes, counting after-hours calls at $45 each on Essentials (they're included on Managed).
6. If you invoice several legal entities, the finder shows the trade-off rather than switching plans: entity billing is on every plan, and Enterprise adds consolidated billing across entities and regions.
7. If your fees for a month come to less than the plan's minimum, you pay the minimum: $600 on Essentials, $2,000 on Managed.

Costs come from the published fees on the pricing page, calculated the same way as its worked examples and cost tool. Changes are estimated at 15% of bookings. Each fee: $8 per active traveler per month, $22 per flight booking, $12 per hotel or rail booking and $15 per change or cancellation on Essentials; $14 per active traveler per month, $30 per flight booking, $15 per hotel or rail booking on Managed, with changes included.
