Billing & Subscriptions

AnywhereSCADA offers flexible plans designed to grow with your needs — from free evaluation to full production deployments.

Plans

Evaluate (Free)

The free tier lets you explore AnywhereSCADA with no credit card required:

  • 8-hour active windows — start a session, and all services are live for 8 hours
  • Unlimited resets — start a new window any time, with no expiration
  • All features available — broker, historian, and alarms all work during active windows
  • 30-day data retention — data older than 30 days is automatically removed
  • Data persists between sessions — your metrics and configuration are kept

When the 8-hour window expires, connected clients are gracefully disconnected. Your data remains intact for the next session.

Production — $49/month

For always-on deployments:

  • Always-on MQTT broker — no session time limits
  • Real-time dashboard — live metric monitoring 24/7
  • Multi-space isolation — create and manage multiple spaces
  • Share spaces with other users via role-based access
  • Email support
  • 500K metrics/month included — usage beyond that is billed at $10 per additional 500K block

Enterprise — Custom Pricing

For organizations with advanced requirements:

  • Everything in Production
  • Custom publish and storage limits
  • Dedicated resources
  • SLA with uptime guarantees
  • Priority support
  • Custom retention and compliance options
  • Onboarding assistance

Add-ons can be enabled or removed at any time from the Add-ons page. Changes are prorated.

Enabling an Add-On

  1. Navigate to Add-ons from the account menu
  2. Click Subscribe on the add-on you want
  3. The add-on is added to your existing subscription and activates immediately

Removing an Add-On

  1. Navigate to Add-ons
  2. Click Remove on the active add-on
  3. The line item is removed from your subscription with prorated credit

If you remove the Historian add-on, historical data collection stops and retention reverts to 30 days.

Usage Tracking

Production plans include 500,000 metrics per month. A metric is counted each time a Sparkplug B data message is received by the broker.

Usage is tracked across all your spaces. If you exceed the included amount, additional usage is billed at $10 per 500,000 metrics in monthly increments.

You can view your current usage on the account dashboard.
