Yes and no. Bitrix24 Cloud is available in three subscriptions plans free (no fees), Standard (paid), and Professional (paid). There are no fees explicit or hidden when using the Free subscription plan. There are no additional or hidden fees for commercial plans, which means there will be no charges above your monthly payments if you use Bitrix24 with Standard or Professional subscription plans. There are, however, optional payments for your free or commercial subscription plans (e.g. VOIP / web telephony credits, SIP-connectors, additional online storage). Please see our plans and tariffs page.

Paid plans devolve to the free plan according to the process described above. If an instance of Bitrix24 on a free plan (either converted to a free plan or originally on a free plan) is completely inactive over the course of 30 days, it is ‘archived’, and it can be retrieved only by an administrator account (yourself or a user in the instance with administrator rights). To retrieve the account, an administrator simply needs to log in. If no administrator logs in for another 15 days after the instance has been ‘archived’, the Bitrix24 instance will be deleted.

Bitrix24 Cloud is free, and not just for 30 days! However, when you decide to try out paid features and tools available in Bitrix24, you can activate your 30-day demo version (log in to your Bitrix24 Account, then go to Settings > Subscription > [activate demo]). When the 30-day demo period expires, you can either switch to one of the commercial subscription plans (Standard $99/mo or Professional $199/mo) or continue using your Bitrix24 account with a free subscription for up to 12 users. Bitrix24 Self-Hosted version is also available as a free 30-day trial version for installing the product locally or on a remote web server. If you choose to go commercial during the 30-day evaluation period, you can simply purchase a license key and use it to switch your trial product copy to a commercial one. No data will be lost, no time will be wasted for installing the product anew!You can download your Bitrix24 Self-Hosted trial version here.

If you plan to extend your Cloud subscription for another 1, 6, or 12 months, you should do so before the end of your current subscription period. After your current subscription plan ends, you have a grace period of 15 days to work without limitation. If you do not renew your subscription, then your Bitrix24 account will be rolled back to the free subscription plan, with a 5 GB online storage limit and functionality corresponding to the free plan. If the amount of data in your Bitrix24 instance exceeds 5 GB, then after the grace period mentioned above, data will be accessible only for reading and deleting. You will not be able to load new files, tasks, input data into the CRM, or perform other actions until the data is below the 5 GB limit. As soon as the amount of data is below 5GB, all the functionality of the free plan will be engaged, and use of the free version can continue indefinitely. Also, the free subscription plan allows you to create and manage up to 12 intranet users. All users exceeding this number will not have access to your Bitrix24 account if used with the free subscription plan. If no user authorizes over the course of one month after the 15-day grace period, your Bitrix24 account will be ‘archived’, and can be opened only by having an administrator (an employee of your company with administrator rights in your Bitrix24 instance) log in. If no administrator logs in over the course of another 15 days after the account has been ‘archived’, the Bitrix24 instance will be deleted.

You can upgrade from any subscription plan to any subscription plan at any time. To upgrade your Bitrix24, please select one of the options in your Bitrix24 settings. Provided that you have appropriate administrative rights, you can upgrade or downgrade your Bitrix24, please navigate to the left-side menu in your Bitrix24 account > Settings > Subscription > (you should be logged in as the account owner). You can also get in touch with a Bitrix24 representative or a Bitrix Partner to have your current subscription plan changed according to your needs.
