Understanding Tines pricing and packaging

How to navigate Tines pricing and packaging between our community edition and paid plans.

Updated this week

Overview

Tines product packages are tiered based on the maturity of your workflow automation program. It relates to the complexity of your initiatives or organization structure.

We believe in simplicity, and our pricing and packaging reflect that mindset.

Please note: In July 2024, we introduced an update to our pricing model for new customers. While this pricing model is available to existing customers, it has not been rolled out to all Tines accounts. Please contact your Tines account manager for details about your contracted plan.


Understanding the model

In line with simplicity, our model has three main levers:

  1. Feature buckets: Unlock the value of different feature sets based on where your business is in its workflow maturity.

  2. Usage: Generously defined usage limits for stories, teams, users, and daily events. These vary by level and you should refer to your order form for an exact representation of your terms.

  3. Add-ons: These offer a way to increase the value you’re getting from Tines by adding additional features or extending your usage limits.

Understanding our feature buckets

Feature buckets are a bundle of features grouped together to add value to a particular plan. These buckets evolve as we add functionality to the product. Each bucket has a clear definition to provide predictability in where future products or features might be bucketed. Our goal is to only introduce new buckets when absolutely necessary.

The list below is accurate as of: 17 July 2024
