Why there is no plan for hobbyists or students

Also had a bit of a chuckle noticing they put Free tier on the LEFT vs right, wouldn’t be surprised if they just get rid of Free Tier.

I have seen loft companies just getting rid of Free tiers.

I’m sad because we all love this product and we’ve been asking for a hobbyist tier for years – something less than $450/year – but there hasn’t been any response other than they’ll do it if they find a way. It seems like it would be simple to have a full-res printing tier with no cloud storage, no contributors allowed, and a limited number of projects for $100/year. But, honestly, after all this time, I don’t think a hobbyist tier will ever be added. I’d love to be proven wrong. My theory is that Shapr3D’s licensing agreement with Parasolid doesn’t allow for it.

No response because most likely plan is to raise the price vs decrease, but just a guess.

Add basic features to the Basic Tier at $38 and increase the Pro Tier.

Knowing subscription model, there is no way a company decrease prices.

Read this thread price only went up.
