These last few months have been super exciting for Strapi. In May, we introduced the first stable version of Strapi, followed along in July with the Admin Roles and Permissions, available with 3 default roles in the Community Edition of Strapi and with unlimited custom roles in Strapi Enterprise Edition (EE currently in public beta).
It has been amazing to see customers using it at scale, and we are very grateful for all the feedback we have received from the Strapi community of users and customers.
Introducing the Bronze plan
Based on the insights received over the last 3 months, we are now making changes to the plans and pricing of Strapi Enterprise Edition. One comment we consistently get is that there should be a more accessible plan for startups. There’s a big gap between the Free Community plan and the Silver plan and most startups can’t afford to pay $299/month for their Content Management System. The reason why the Silver plan is priced at $299 / month is that it also includes unlimited Technical Support. However, we realize that companies that need the Role-Based Access Control feature with custom roles should be able to purchase it without support. We’ve heard this feedback loud and clear, and since our mission is to empower millions of projects, we’re excited to introduce our new Bronze pricing plan for Strapi Enterprise Edition (EE)!
The Bronze plan now includes 30 custom roles for a discounted price of $29. It should be sufficient for the vast majority of the Strapi community's use cases. Each custom role you create in your project will be able to have specific access at a field level of granularity.
This new Strapi EE offering will enable more users to discover and benefit from advanced features available in the Enterprise Edition.
Along with the new Bronze plan, we’re also excited to introduce a 30-day free trial option for both the Bronze and Silver plan, allowing you to take Strapi EE for a spin with real data on your own servers.
