Can we change from the existing pricing plan to the new one? If so, how?
Yes indeed you can! Go to the âAccountâ page, and there should be a button that says âModify Planâ right under where it shows your current limits. If you donât see it, log out and then log back in and that should fix it for you
Maybe I missed that in the blog post, but what will happen with the existing subscriptions, i.e professional? They will stay unchanged unless I want to modify them?
I want to note, that I find your communication strategy is very lacking.
As a user with more than 25 nodes but less than 50, it would have been nice to be informed about such a relevant change beforehand (even without being subscribed to the newsletter). Iâm now unable to add nodes / modify my network until the new payment terms are communicated and approved.
Edit:
I also want to clarify, that I welcome this change, as it is (at least for our use case), better than the old pricing model. Just the way the advance notification (not existing) happened, was not good.

Correct. Your existing subscription will not change on its own. Only if you choose to modify it.
The change from one moment to another seems abrupt to me, it is somewhat arbitrary and without any transition, and I still do not understand how it will affect my professional subscription, I was paying $449.00/year with 500 nodes, now how much should I pay for the same subscription next year?
Current Plan: Professional - Yearly$449.00/year (500 nodes), the following year how much should I pay a year for the same plan???
Even for a couple of years waiting for the so announced version 2.0 of Zerotiery when we go in version 1.8 now it changes to 1.10, I donât understand where we are goingâŚ
@ingpedrorocha As I stated in a previous reply in this topic, you donât have to change anything if you donât want to. If youâre happy with your current subscription level, itâll stay the same. New customers canât get the old subscription plan, but existing customers can stay on the old plan if they chose to do so
Thanks for the answer, Iâm sorry for the drastic changes that have just been made for new users, I still donât understand Zerotierâs line of development, also the benefit or changes of the new version 1.10 do not appear in the change list
@ingpedrorocha if you look in the blog post linked above, it details that adding OIDC/SSO support to ZeroTier networks on https://my.zerotier.com is the major change in this release.
Thank you very much for the clarifications, you are very kind, I hope that in the future it will be the best for the community and it will definitely benefit many users and that is the important thing. Thank you for your support
2 things. I wish youâd communicated this better. This kinda came out of nowhere from my perspective and I can see that being troublesome for administrators.
BUT
I really appreciate the new model. The âsharedâ device IDs is huge for me, Iâve requested this in the past so cures a lot of my struggles. I also like the smaller âpacksâ for licenses, makes it easier to scale up nicely.

We hear you on this one. Hindsight being 20/20, we should have given a heads up beforehand that this was changing for those in the 25-50 node range. Sorry! Weâll try to do better on that next time!

Hi. Iâve been considering recommending ZT across our IT teams for about 1 year. During that time Iâve had 3 different pricing models. I finally have approval for âProfessionalâ pricingâŚonly to see ZT remove that price plan on a whim without any notice period! Itâs frustratingly unprofessional, and impossible to commit to for organizations who need to get approval on pricing. It could (and has) literally change pricing tomorrow. This poor communication (no notice period of change) on the part of ZT breeds distrust and doesnât help win over sceptics who warned âI told you soâ.
Consider this real-life scene: âHey boss, did you make a decision to approve ZT for our NetOps teams?â, âEr, if you mean did I agree to lock into a proprietary VPN/remote-access subscription that cna DOUBLE in price within 24 hours, then No I did not.â âHmmâŚwell thanks for considering it boss - I spent 3 months testing and proving concept, and the solution itself is exactly what we were looking for. Can we turn this around? What do we need from ZT boss?â âPredictable and contracted pricing; the OpenVPN solution you use already has that - just stick with that. End of discussion.â

The price would have doubled if you had a full 500 nodes under the pro plan, have you reached out to them on the enterprise plan? They also have MSP plans available.

Could I ask for a quick update on what the new pricing will cost my organisation?
My current usage reads asâŚ
3 admins
143 nodes
0 SSO seats.
Is this the correct config to use on this? If so, it looks like Iâll be WAY better off staying on my current plan unless I need SSO?
And if I did need SSO, Iâd be paying over $700/month for ZT, which seems outrageously expensiveâŚ
