Honest fit

Which one is right for you.

Choose Kliper if
TurboQSA may fit better if
✓Cost per user matters: a 3 QSA, 2 staff firm pays $10,000 a year instead of $21,400
→You want the software installed in your own AWS or Azure account as standard
✓You want AI drafting included rather than bought as an add-on
→You need FedRAMP reporting
✓You also run PCI PIN, 3DS or P2PE assessments, ISO 27001 internal audits or SWIFT CSCF attestations
→You deliver ROCs and AOCs in languages other than English
✓You want it hosted with no infrastructure to run, with self-hosting available later

Questions about switching.

Is Kliper a TurboQSA alternative?
Yes. Both are ROC tools for QSA firms: scoping, testing, evidence and an exported ROC on the PCI SSC template. Kliper is priced per user at $2,000 a year and includes its AI assistant; TurboQSA is priced per QSA user and sells TurboAI separately.
Can Kliper run in our own environment like TurboQSA?
Yes, on Enterprise: Kliper runs as a self-hosted install on your own servers under a licence. Most firms use the hosted app at app.kliper.dev.
Does Kliper do SAQs?
Yes, three: SAQ A, SAQ D for merchants and SAQ D for service providers, each with its AOC, in Word or PDF on the PCI SSC template. Kliper does not produce the other SAQs (B, B-IP, C, C-VT, P2PE, SPoC).
