Unified Pricing: Licensing plan framework
The licensing information on this page applies to you if you are on Unified Pricing.
If you are on Flex, refer to Flex licensing plan framework.
The following sections provide a high-level description of the licensing plans available in the Unified Pricing model.
The Free plan provides the following benefits:
-
You can use basic development and attended automation capabilities.
-
You can use the Free plan for commercial purposes, but direct sign-up is not available. The Free plan becomes accessible only when your current trial or paid licensing plan expires and your account is downgraded.
When your trial or paid licensing plan expires, you are automatically downgraded to the Free licensing plan. This transition causes you to lose access to the special benefits unique to the trial or paid licensing plans. For a comprehensive understanding, refer to the following resources:
-
License expiration and downgrade for details on the general changes that occur in the event of a license expiration and downgrade.
-
Plan breakdown for a detailed comparison between the benefits offered with the Free plan and those provided with the trial or paid plans at platform level.
-
Product-specific licensing documentation for a detailed comparison between the entitlements offered with the Free plan and those provided with the trial or paid plans. For example, if you want to understand what Orchestrator functionalities you lose access to in the event of a license expiration, refer to the Orchestrator user guide.
The Community plan provides the following benefits:
-
It is a free plan that gives you instant access to elementary automation capabilities through licenses for users and UiPath services.
-
It is aimed at non-commercial use only. For commercial purposes, the Basic Trial and Standard Trial plans are available.
-
The Community plan includes a set number of licenses, of which you cannot request any more. If you need additional licenses, you must upgrade to the Basic plan.
The Basic Trial plan provides the following benefits:
-

-
With a Basic Trial plan, you can try the extended platform capabilities that come with a paid Basic plan.
The evaluation period for the Basic Trial plan is limited to 60 days. After the trial expires, your organization is automatically downgraded to the Free plan.
The Basic plan provides the following benefits:
-
It gives you minimal capabilities to help discover opportunities for continuous process optimization.
-
It does not provide governance, security, enterprise scale capabilities.
The Standard Trial provides the following benefits:

Upgrading from Community to Standard Trial gives you access to additional licenses and premium services at the platform level.
The evaluation period for the Standard Trial is limited to 60 days. After the trial expires, your organization is automatically downgraded to the Free plan.
The Standard plan provides the following benefits:
-
It helps you discover opportunities for continuous process optimization.
