Comparison
Sakari pricing vs Signilio for sales teams
Published pricing, what a plan includes, the fees that show up later, and the shared inbox, side by side. Checked September 25, 2026.
The short answer
Sakari is a straightforward SMS marketing tool with unlimited users, a free number, integrations and a slider that sizes your plan in segments. The entry rate is about 3 cents a segment, but Sakari bills inbound segments too, adds a $49.50 vetting fee when your campaign goes to the carriers, and charges $4 a month per extra number. Signilio's Starter is $34.99 a month for 1,000 texts with replies free, extra numbers at $1 and registration handled during onboarding. For a small marketing list the two are close on paper; the estimator shows the difference once replies and numbers are counted.

Signilio is $189.99 a month on its Pro plan for the same team, carrier fees included. Which one is cheaper changes with volume and team size, so the calculator above gives your own number.

Sakari figures are from its published pricing page (https://sakari.io/pricing/), checked September 25, 2026. Prices and plans change; we update this page when we notice, and you can tell us at admin@signilio.com. Signilio figures are the rate on our pricing page.
- Only the $25 entry point of Sakari's slider was read; larger plans carry lower per-segment rates that the estimate does not use, so it overstates Sakari at high volume.
- The 10DLC vetting fee comes from Sakari's help center, which was read through a search index rather than fetched directly.
