This change reflects the expanded feature set and helps us continue delivering high-quality components to you and your users. +Today, we are sharing some important updates to the MUI X product offerings and pricing structure. +These changes are made to reflect the expanded feature set and help support the delivering of high-quality components to you and your users. ## Changes to the Pro plan -### Current Pricing +### Current pricing -Under our current pricing model, if you licensed the Pro plan for 50 developers, you only paid for 10 seats. This concept was introduced when we offered only the Data Grid Pro with a much smaller feature set. +Under the current pricing model, you only purchase a license for the first 10 developers. +So to license the Pro plan for 50 developers you would purchase 10 licenses. +This concept was introduced in the very beginning of the MUI X offering (2021) when we offered only the Data Grid Pro with a small feature set. -### New Pricing +Since the release of this component, we launched several new components and features, including [Date and Time Range Pickers](/x/react-date-pickers/date-time-range-picker/). -With the launch of several new components, including [Date and Time Range Pickers](/x/react-date-pickers/date-time-range-picker/), as well as upcoming Pro versions of [Charts](/x/react-charts/) and [TreeView](/x/react-tree-view/), we're updating our pricing. +### New pricing -Moving forward, each developer requires a seat. So, for example, 50 developers will now need 50 seats. +We will soon release the first Pro features of the [Charts](/x/react-charts/) and [Tree View](/x/react-tree-view/). +These new features will only be available under the updated pricing: moving forward, each developer requires a license. So, for example, 50 developers will need 50 licenses. -We're happy to discuss volume discounts to accommodate larger teams. - -### Grandfathering Current Customers +### Grandfathering current customers We value our loyal customers and want to ensure a smooth transition: current customers will be grandfathered into their existing plans. -This means you can continue using and renewing the legacy license for as long as you wish. -However, the legacy license covers only Data Grid and Date Pickers. +This means you can continue to renew your licenses under the legacy pricing for as long as you wish. +However, the legacy pricing only covers the previously released components: Data Grid and Date Pickers. :::info -**Access to new components:** The Pro versions of Charts and Tree View, and other future Pro components, will be available exclusively through a license key under the new Pro plan model or a Premium key (Premium users will experience no change). +**Access to new components:** The Pro versions of Charts and Tree View, and other future Pro components, will be available exclusively through the new Pro plan model or a Premium plan (Premium customers will experience no change, all Pro components are included). :::: -### Pricing for Small Teams +### Pricing for small teams + +The price is the same for customers with 10 developers or fewer. +Actually, we are making this pricing change to be able to keep the price affordable for small teams. -The price is essentially the same for customers with 10 developers or fewer, but you still need a new license key to use the Pro versions of Charts or Tree View. If that's the case, we recommend you contact our sales team and get a discount to renew your license earlier. +However, if you want to use the new features, you will need a new license key to use the Pro versions of Charts or Tree View. +You can [contact](https://support.mui.com/hc/en-us/requests/new) our support team to receive a new license key. + +### Larger teams + +We're happy to discuss volume discounts to accommodate larger teams. ## Changes to the Premium plan +### New Pro components + +We will soon release the first Pro features of the [Charts](/x/react-charts/) and [Tree View](/x/react-tree-view/). +These features will be available to all Premium customers without any further action needed. + ### Ending the early bird discount -After two years since the [introduction of our Premium plan](/blog/premium-plan-release/), we've added numerous features and are on the verge of releasing the Pivot mode for the Data Grid. We consider the product mature and battle tested enough and as a result, the early bird discount for the Premium plan finally reaches its end. +After two years since the [introduction of our Premium plan](/blog/premium-plan-release/), we've added numerous features and are on the verge of releasing the Pivot mode for the Data Grid. +We consider the product mature and battle-tested enough and as a result, the early bird discount for the Premium plan finally reaches its end. + +### Large discount for current customers However, we want to ensure that our valued early customers continue to enjoy the benefits of an earlier purchase. -Current customers will still benefit from a 20% renewal discount. +Current customers will still benefit from a 20% renewal discount (vs. 25% early bird discount before).
