What each SDS Manager plan includes
- Free — manage up to 200 SDSs and generate a digital SDS binder file for employee access.
- Basic — everything in Free, plus mobile access for all users, GHS labels, uploading your own SDSs, and secondary container labeling (GHS) with QR code. Per SDS Manager’s FAQ, Basic requires employees to log in with a username and password to reach the sheets.
- Premium (marked “Recommended”) — everything in Basic, plus access to the SDS library by scanning a QR code, automatic alerts for new revisions, organizing SDSs by location, an app for offline access (iOS/Android), help building your initial SDS inventory, and an SDS AI assistant (30 conversations a month).
- Pro — everything in Premium, plus risk assessment, alerts for hazardous products, tracking chemical usage and disposal, reports and XLS export, and unlimited SDS AI assistant use.
Billing terms SDS Manager publishes
- Priced on SDS count only — “no additional fees for administrative users or extra locations”.
- Trial — 30 days, no credit card; it ends automatically and a paid subscription starts only if you place an order.
- Monthly or annual — you can start monthly and move to annual later.
- Changing size — you can change the number of SDSs in your plan; the invoice reflects only the prorated difference.
- No lock-in — SDS Manager states there is no lock-in period and no obligation to continue.
- Tax — prices are shown without tax.
- Other products — the same page lists an EHS product (audits, incidents, training and OSHA 300 reporting) at a flat $9.99 per employee per month, and ExactSDS authoring from $199 per SDS (pay as you go) or annual plans for SDS authors.
SDS Manager vs SDSentry on price
SDSentry charges per location, not per sheet: $24 per location per month or $199 per location per year, with unlimited users and no SDS cap (an OSHA-deadline price, regularly $49, locked for as long as you subscribe if you start by November 20, 2026). The 7-day free trial needs a card ($0 today). So which is cheaper depends on two numbers — how many sheets you keep and how many sites you run:
- One site, under 200 sheets, no QR access needed — SDS Manager’s free plan costs $0. Nothing beats free.
- One site, 100 sheets — SDS Manager Basic is $228/yr (Premium, which adds QR access and the offline app, is $468/yr); SDSentry is $199/yr.
- One site, 400 sheets — SDS Manager Basic is $372/yr and Premium $1,068/yr; SDSentry is still $199/yr.
- Five sites sharing a 200-sheet library — SDS Manager Basic is $276/yr and Premium $672/yr, because it does not charge per location; SDSentry is 5 × $199 = $995/yr. Here SDS Manager is cheaper.
Price is not the only difference. SDSentry includes the rest of OSHA Hazard Communication in the one price — GHS secondary labels, workplace posters, the written HazCom program, per-product training with e-signatures, OSHA 300 logs, EPCRA Tier II export, and a no-login Shared SDS Binder that works offline. SDS Manager has a far larger library (17M+ SDSs searchable, per its site), many languages, and authoring and EHS products if you need them. The full side-by-side is in our SDS Manager alternative guide.
Questions to ask before you buy any per-SDS plan
- How many products are on your shelves today, and how many will you add this year? Count before you pick a tier.
- Do employees need to reach sheets without a login (QR poster) or offline? On SDS Manager that starts at Premium.
- Do you also need the written program, training records and OSHA logs, or only the SDS library?
Frequently asked questions
How much does SDS Manager cost?
Per SDS Manager’s US pricing page, checked October 10, 2026: a free plan for up to 200 safety data sheets; then, for a 100-SDS library, Basic $19, Premium $39 and Pro $59 per month billed annually, or $23, $47 and $71 per month billed monthly. Prices rise with the number of SDSs in your library (for example $23 / $56 / $84 per month billed annually at 200 SDSs) and are shown without tax.
What does SDS Manager charge for extra users or locations?
Nothing extra, according to SDS Manager: its pricing is based solely on the number of safety data sheets you manage, with no additional fees for administrative users or extra locations. Custom pricing is available for organizations with a large number of sites.
Does SDS Manager have a free trial?
Yes. The pricing page offers a 30-day free trial with no credit card; it ends automatically and a paid subscription starts only if you place an order. SDS Manager also states there is no lock-in period, and you can change your plan size with a prorated charge.
Is SDS Manager cheaper than SDSentry?
It depends on library size and number of sites. For one location, SDS Manager’s free plan (up to 200 SDSs) costs nothing, and its Basic plan for 100 SDSs is $228 a year billed annually versus SDSentry’s $199 per location per year. Because SDS Manager does not charge per location, it can cost less than SDSentry for several sites sharing a small library. SDSentry’s price stays flat as the library grows and includes the written HazCom program, training records, OSHA 300 logs and Tier II export.
