Sorry I did say the wrong currency. Thanks that does answer my question.

Now I just have to decide if my small home server NUC is worth an extra $200 USD a year.

@humptydumpty for the sake of transparency, we are now a team of 4 (including @nebulon and myself) full-time. We also have a couple helping us part-time with support. But other than that you are spot on 😄 We don't have any interest in growth for growth’s sake.

@humptydumpty I think it was a bug or something as I uninstalled the app and tried to reinstall it and it failed.

For reference I have the Vaultwarden and Gitea installed. The 3rd app was Firefly.

Not meaning to dogpile on you @NoMan-0 , I just like the movies, the scene, the gif, and @timconsidine's post gave me reason to post it!!

Thanks for the suggestion(s) and feedback 🙂 Also, I moved this to Discuss.

I am stealing this phrase 🙂

Probably wont be for quite a while, I think

Yes, work on this is still months away. We have a bunch of things we want to fix before we do multi-host. Also, the multi-host when it happens will anyways have a different pricing structure (I don't know what that is). But as always, existing customers will always get some better pricing than what we go with (we always grandfather, never change prices on existing customers).

There used to be a limit of domains/uses etc but we removed all limits in the previous release.

@girish Thanks Girish. I'll email you directly (support@cloudron) so we can tidy things up.

@hustler We don't have anything public for students but can you write to support@cloudron.io ? We will see what we can do, thanks.

@Draik yes, custom apps are also included in the app limit.

@Gubindev We don't have a special plan/policy as such, but if you can write to us at support@cloudron.io, we will try to help.

@necrevistonnezr
A nice symbology system, sure, but you’re capped at drive bay space.

So unless you’re able to find a 6-bay symbology system that can support 14tb drives (or larger) in each bay, that wouldn’t be worth it to me.

But at least now we are comparing apples to apples

There are currently no plans for that, no. I think from what we have learnt, any per-app pricing misleads people into thinking that we support the apps itself.

@bluxomat To answer your questions (and my understanding of your needs): If you have different customers on one Cloudron instance, there is no option to have a "kind of" multi-tenant user management. If you give the role "user admin" to one user of client A, she is able to see and create all users on that Cloudron instance.

In that case it's better for all (including Cloudron the company because of more subscriptions) to install a Cloudron instance per client. If you are a "frugal fox" (never heard of this before, I had a quick translate of the german word "Sparfuchs" that means something like: If I don't have to put more money in other people's pockets, why should I?), then the only chance is to have some kind of "multi-tenant" within the user management of the apps themselves. But if your customer has more than one app on your instance, you have to repeat the creation of users in every app again and again.

@marcusquinn Kids! we need a good writeup everywhere on how to run your own minecraft server the easy way.. the Cloudron way!

@girish Thanks,

Love to see your email coming!

@girish 😉 Merci!

@scooke said in Cloudron Pricing and Licensing Help:

I'm just thinking digitally here, but most fonts, Wordpress themes and plugins (and other paid themes and plugins), etc. are for one installation/project.

As you mention it, first fonts are not in the same category as Wordpress which carries a General Public License (GPL) which carries the obligation to ALL themes and plugins to be produce and distributed under the exact same condition, meaning they must be GPL as well.

Limiting the number of instance installation in the case of themes or plugins for Wordpress, or any FOSS which comes with such license of freedom, is among the biggest SCAM going on in this sphere right now, as this is a violation of the GPL license which, among other things, stipulate that once you have a copy, you can freely copy and distribute it under the same license's terms. Hence, technically speaking, if a wp theme developer does limits you in the number of instances you can install, then he's breaking the license himself which they still pretend to be GPL which is an absolute non-sense.

Clourdon is NOT GPL, nor even open source if I'm not mistaken, right now, even though most of the software part of the offer are. That's not a problem at all. simply because you do not absolutely need a Cloudron box to run any of the software offer which are coming with GPL. When one pays for either cPanel or Plesk the principle is the same, the prices are always PER INSTANCE, obviously, and that is even though they too offer GPL apps installation via their dashboard via Softaculous and the like.

My 2 cents worth, tale care 🙂

We will fix the pricing page, I agree it's a bit misleading.
