Pricing Updates for Appcelerator Cloud Services and Analytics...
As I wrote last October, I am personally committed to openness and transparency regarding issues concerning our pricing and licensing. We care deeply about providing you with outstanding value and high quality products at competitive prices. This has been our commitment from the day Nolan and I started this company. One of our core company values is to “Enable Customer Success,” and we are honored each and every day to empower you to deliver transformative mobile experiences to the world.
Over the last few months, many of you have provided us with valuable feedback on the pricing of our free and commercial packages regarding Appcelerator Cloud Services (ACS) and Analytics.
We listened closely to what you said.
As we begin 2013, we are pleased to announce substantial changes to the pricing of these various packages, effective immediately:
1. App Explore and Commercial Accelerate Packages
- The free App Explore package, which previously included ACS monthly metrics of up to 100 Push Notification Devices, 500,000 API calls, 5GB of storage and 10,000 emails has now been increased to: 5 million Push Notifications, 5 million API calls, 20GB of storage and 100,000 emails.
- The free App Explore package, which previously included Analytics metrics of up to 50,000 events per month has now been increased to 1 million events per month.
- The commercial Accelerate packages (Standard, Enhanced, Premium) have also been increased to include the same monthly levels as above for both ACS and Analytics.
If you are an existing customer currently subscribing to any of the commercial packages, you will immediately and automatically inherit these new changes!
Note that at no point will your entitlements go below what has been purchased.
2. Appcelerator Cloud Services (ACS) Standalone Pricing
The standalone incremental pricing structure of ACS has also been dramatically simplified into a single free tier (per application) as follows:

The standalone incremental pricing structure of Analytics has also been changed as follows:
