Pendo SCIM pricing: what it's gated behind, and what it costs
SCIM gated behind a paid tier. Iden provisions Pendo on any plan tier.
2 min read · Last updated June 2026
Pendo gates SCIM provisioning behind its Pulse / Ultimate (Premium) plan (Contact Sales (~$48K+/yr)), up from Free. Standard plans cannot use automated provisioning, so most identity tools either make you upgrade or leave Pendo manual. Iden provisions Pendo on any plan, so you skip the SCIM tax entirely and still get provisioning, deprovisioning, and access reviews with a full audit trail.
What the Pendo SCIM tax costs
Pendo gates SCIM to the Pulse / Ultimate (Premium) plan (Contact Sales (~$48K+/yr)), up from Free. With Iden you connect Pendo on any plan instead, so this cost does not apply.
Pendo is MAU-priced, not per-seat. SCIM only on Premium/Pulse/Ultimate tiers or as paid add-on. Median contract ~$48.5K/yr.

How Iden provisions Pendo on any plan
Iden does not depend on Pendo’s SCIM endpoint. It connects Pendo through the method that works on your plan, an API, OAuth, or Iden’s own custom automation, and runs the full lifecycle: onboarding on day one, permission changes as roles move, access requests that replace manual tickets, access reviews with evidence, and offboarding in seconds. That is the coverage SCIM-only tools cannot match once an app gates or lacks SCIM.
