In the last couple of weeks, the tech industry has witnessed several announcements about increasing prices of popular tools. Heroku has canceled its free plan after offering it for over a decade. Slack has increased its price and limited its free plan to only 3 months. Figma lovers are worried if Adobe – the new owner of their essential design tool – is going to limit its free plan as well, even if there are no such talks at the moment.
Forest Admin, the pioneer of low code internal tools, has made the decision to go against the trend and offer a fully-functional and customisable admin panel solution for free for unlimited users. It means that regardless of how many people use Forest Admin in a given company, it will be free of charge. This update reflects the long-term mission of Forest Admin to make developers’ lives easier and, even more importantly, they feel that it better fits its users’ different stages of growth.
“We want as many people as possible to be able to use Forest Admin and reap the benefits of having a powerful, easy-to-use admin panel from day one.”
Sandro Munda, Forest Admin’s CEO
Now, developers can sign up for a free account (no credit card required), set up a fully-functional internal tool in the blink of an eye, and invite an unlimited number of users. All of it for free – no catch.
Forest Admin also has a paid offer for businesses that need more than what the free plan offers. The paid version enables setting up roles and permissions to determine who can do what on the admin panel and quickly adjust it when needed. For example, a C-level executive will not see or use an admin panel in the same way as a developer who needs more technical data. Likewise, an operational person will need to see the data in a specific way to do their work efficiently. This feature is a part of a Team plan that costs $12 per user.
On top of that, there are advanced functionalities for established businesses that need advanced security features like SSO or IP Whitelisting, approval workflows, collaborations features, and more. These can be found in a new Plus plan that costs $48 per user. All details can be found on the pricing page.
