For all the benefits it can provide to your maintenance activities, these software packages are relatively inexpensive at the entry level. The factor that has the most impact on overall price is how many users and/or locations the software needs to accommodate. Some vendors charge per "seat" or user, while others offer tiered pricing, where a small business package is less expensive but can support only a limited number of users.
Another significant pricing difference is between locally hosted software, which you pay for up front, and hosted or ASP software, which carries a monthly fee for usage instead. ASP solutions usually provide a less costly means to get started with maintenance management services. However, when you consider that you'll be paying that monthly fee for years to come, you may find the overall cost exceeds that of traditional software.
