What You Need to Know about Prosci’s Change Management Toolkits and Portal.
New and experienced change practitioners often ask if there is value in subscribing to the Prosci Portal, or spending money to purchase Prosci’s toolkits.

This review of the Prosci Portal will cover a broad-based selection of key Prosci tools, as well as discuss the costs required to obtain each one. We will present a quick cost-benefit review to address the questions of whether the Prosci toolkits are worth obtaining based on how much you pay relative to the value you gain.
Prosci offers a wide range of change management products, contents, and cloud-based tools, including the ADKAR Dashboard, CMROI Calculator, ECM Roadmap, PCT Analyzer, Research Library, and the Prosci eToolkit for change practitioners.
These tools and toolkits, reviewed below, are accessible in the Prosci Portal when you subscribe to the All Access Portal Subscription which costs about $2,000 a year, but you can also subscribe to each one individually.
The “All-Access Prosci Portal” with all Prosci eToolkits
Subscribing to Prosci’s All-Access Portal provides you with unlimited access to all Prosci’s change management toolkits, that you can use to implement a wide range of change deliverables and activities.
Whether you or members of your team are making the case for an effective change management practice, or whether you are delivering change management deliverables to support a business change, the Prosci All-Access Portal Subscription provides you with cloud-based tools to support some of your change management activities.
Prosci Toolkits
The All Access Prosci Portal includes the toolkits listed below. See the sections below this one – for a pros and cons review of these Prosci eToolkits.
- ADKAR Dashboard: Using the ADKAR Dashboard, you can send out ready-to-use, quick ADKAR-based surveys to impacted users to track user adoption and usage with real quantifiable ADKAR Model data. This allows you to track how impacted groups are progressing through a change.
- Prosci Practitioner eToolkit: This eToolkit allows you to drive, lead, and manage change management programs by applying the Prosci change management 3-Phase process: Phase 1: Prepare Approach, Phase 2: Manage Change, and Phase 3: Sustain Outcomes.

These Prosci eToolkits, which can be purchased at the Prosci Store: store.prosci.com are designed for change practitioners to apply the Prosci ADKAR® Model, as well as implementing the Prosci 3-Phase Process.
Real Value or a Change Management Scheme?
As mentioned in the beginning section of this Prosci review article, I have delivered a wide range of change management programs across large, global organizations including for clients of Deloitte and Accenture, and directly as a consultant for Apple, Goldman Sachs, Cisco, HSBC, State Street, Capital One, and many more. How many of the tools above have I used or seen used by most change management practitioners? Not a lot of them.
The two Prosci change management toolkits that I believe provide the highest levels of value are the Prosci Practitioner eToolkit and the ADKAR Dashboard. To some extent the Prosci Change Management Research Library can also be very valuable, however, you can find all of those content for free on the Internet with a simple Google search.
So, is the All Access Portal worth $2,000 a year? Or is it a scheme relative to the value it provides?
The answer, like most things in life, is this: It depends.
- It depends on your level of experience with change management.
- It depends on whether you can get your organization to pay for it. If you can get your organization to pay the full $2,000 cost, then it’ll be worth it.
- It depends on whether you want to track and achieve employee adoption and usage on all or most of the projects you are providing change management for. The Prosci ADKAR Dashboard provides streamlined and easy to use surveys that you can leverage for tracking change adoption.
- It depends on whether you want to audit your change management work against Prosci’s best practices and baseline your organization’s change management program with the Prosci change methodology. If so, using the Practitioner eToolkit, Maturity Model Audit, Best Practices Audit, and Prosci ADKAR Portal will be valuable to you.
Note: The annual billing of the individual tools, as well as the All Access Prosci Portal, will occur on the same date and is an automated annual recurring transaction. If you want to change or cancel your Prosci subscription you can do this any time.
AGS hasn’t received any complaints or negative feedback from Prosci users about their ability to easily cancel their Prosci subscription. Do you have any Prosci review (positive or negative) to share with AGS about your experience with the Prosci Portal or toolkits? Click here to message us: I Have a Review to Share about Prosci.
Instead of the All Access Subscription, Can you Subscribe to Just one Prosci Toolkit?
Yes, you can. You don’t need to subscribe to the full package all-in-one Prosci Portal, you can just subscribe to the specific toolkit you need.
Here are the prices for the two key individual Prosci tools, that I believe provides the most value:
(1) Practitioner eToolkit:
The Prosci Practitioner eToolkit costs $400 USD a year, and you can cancel anytime you want.
(2) ADKAR Dashboard
The Prosci ADKAR Dashboard costs $600 each year. This is based on a 15% savings for subscribing to the annual package. The AKDAR Dashboard costs $60 each month if you go with the monthly plan.
