Is it Possible to Upgrade to a 'Basic' Plan for Just One User Instead of the Default Three on Pipedream?

:wave: hi! Long time no pipedream here, but happy to be at it again to test some new webhooks/APIs! :slightly_smiling_face:

Question: I’m looking at upgrading to get some premium features (or well, trying to convince my company to upgrade :slightly_smiling_face: ), and would like to start with just myself as user, ‘Basic’ plan,and annual fee. But when pressing buttons it seems that any ‘upgrade’ flow seems to include at least 3 users? Is there a way to change this down to just 1 user?

If curious, the main trigger to wanna upgrade is ‘premium apps’ :slightly_smiling_face: looks like the fun times are over for things like easily connecting to certain APIs from a workflow without code (Salesforce in my case).

Hi ! The Basic Plan includes 1 user, and additional users cost $15/user/month on the annual plan. If you want to remove them from your workspace, please go to https://pipedream.com/settings/users → Members.

aaaah makes sene, thx, will give that a shot!

followup to :point_up_2: : is it possible to obtain such an individual subscription through a more ‘corporate’-y order form / quote / invoice / billing flow rather than credit card?

(to make it fit easier in company purchase/procurement process)

Hi Wouter, yes we do offer pay by invoice on the Business & Enterprise plans.

Custom invoicing is available on the Enterprise subscription specifically as well.

If you are interested in an Enterprise subscription, you can click the Contact Sales button on our pricing page here:

Hi - I’ve been chatting with Darren from your team over the past couple of weeks.

Happy to answer any questions around any of this.

We are also happy to quote/invoice for usage commitments as well to ensure there are not ad-hoc usage bills each month on top of the platform fee.

yeah he told me as well! couldnt make the meeting but started watching the recording today

this thing :point_up_2: is actually a bit of a separate ‘track’ within our company at the moment, where I’m more looking to leverage it as a tool for demo/PoC rather than put in actual operational usage - but it might make sense to make those purchasing threads ‘converge’

Got it. When you say demo/POC is that for building out prototypes of integrations that you would then roll into internal systems should the POC validate the expected use cases?

main goal is ‘outwards’ (I’m on our Product team so my primary audience is customers), but suspect it would potentially also trigger quite some ‘inwards’ adoption yes - I like making PoCs for both internal and external use cases :slightly_smiling_face: (and we are a software company and user of our own product after all)

Makes sense!

anyway, I’m today the most ‘hands-on’ pipedream user within our company, and pretty far through procurement approval with this one, so all in all think it might make sense to ‘unblock’ me here first and foremost with this earlier and smaller request :point_up_2: consider it your ‘foot in the door’ that can help smoothen progress on the potential larger account :slightly_smiling_face:

So would it work to do that through quote and invoicing rather than online payments even though it’s still just a small account?

Hi - sorry I missed your message!

The base subscriptions are all low across the board – even the Business tier subscription platform fee is only $1,188 when paid annually.

They all also include a monthly usage component which bills in arrears every 30 days.

As such, when we discuss formal purchasing via an PO & Invoice, it is always tied to some sort of usage commitment as we cannot do net-30 terms while issuing usage invoices every 30 days.

Does your company have no process for issuing corporate cards/paying small subscriptions via a card?

Its generally uncommon for businesses to issue invoices/quotes/process POs for small payments.
