    The Subscription Pricing Model

    The subscription pricing models requires the users to pay a fixed subscription fee in advance on a monthly basis, and purchase Catalyst resources worth that amount as determined by the pricing. This is a prepaid model in which a fixed set of resources are allocated for each subscription amount tier.

    Catalyst currently provides the following price tiers for the subscription model:

    • Basic: USD 25/month
    • Standard: USD 50/month
    • Premium: USD 75/month
    • Elite: USD 100/month
    • Enterprise 500: USD 500/month
    • Enterprise 1200: USD 1200/month

    If you choose to opt for the subscription model, you can select your preferred subscription price tier and set up your payment method for your account in the Zoho Store. Catalyst will deduct the payment, and the amount will be consumed for your resource usage in that month.

    Note: If your Catalyst account is registered in a region or data center other than the US, the pricing of these tiers are calculated in your local currency correspondingly. The payments are processed in your local currency.

    Benefits

    • The subscription pricing model is aimed at users who require a specific amount to be budgeted at their organization or businesses every month for Catalyst usage.

    • The subscription model is beneficial for SMBs or enterprises of various scales, as it enables a way for you to meticulously plan and allocate allowances for your operations, and manage your expenditures effectively.

    • A USD 5 will be added to the subscription amount you choose by default as a free allowance. This is refreshed monthly, and is not just a one-time benefit. It means, if you subscribe to a Basic plan ($25 plan), you will infact be provided with $30 worth of resources. Similarly, in a Standard plan ($50 plan), you will get $55 worth of resources, and so on.

    • While the cost you incur with the pay-as-you-go model can vary depending on your usage, you can pay a fixed price each month with the subscription model. If you are fully aware of your requirements and utilization, you can calculate and determine the exact price tier you will need, and optimize your expenses.

    Subscription Inclusions

    Catalyst provides a quota of resources for each subscription plan tier, worth that amount’s usage. You can write to support@zohocatalyst.com to find out about the exact inclusions in each subscription price tier.

    The monthly subscription fee you pay applies to your Catalyst account overall, for as many projects you create in any number of organizations, and not for individual projects. You will be required to renew your subscription monthly by paying the fee for any specific plan tier. The payment can be made automatically each month after you set up your payment method in Catalyst.

    Note: With the subscription model, you have the flexibility to allocate your usage across various components and operations as needed. For example, you can use your entire subscription value for up to 1 million function calls, or you can split it between different operations such as 10,000 function calls, 200,000 row insertions, or 100,000 file uploads, depending on your requirements. There are no fixed limits for individual components, so you can tailor your usage based on your specific needs.

    Exceeding the Subscription Amount

    Catalyst will consider your subscription amount as consumed if you exceed the quota of the resource inclusions of that tier, overall within the month. For example, if your subscription tier can accommodate up to 200k row insertions, any row insertion made beyond this limit will be regarded as exceeding the plan.

    When this occurs, you will need to upgrade to the next pricing tier to continue using Catalyst. For example, if you exceed the $25 Basic subscription plan before its validity period, you will need to upgrade to any of the next tiers, such as the Standard $50 or Premium $75 plan, to continue your usage without interruption.

    If you fail to upgrade your subscription plan, Catalyst will temporarily suspend your account activities. You will not be able to work with any of your Catalyst projects in any organization or use any Catalyst resources until you configure your plan upgrade.

    Note: Catalyst also helps you keep track of your usage and manage it effectively by auto-creating budgets, based on your subscription plan as soon as you subscribe. These budgets will be automatically configured and alerts will be set for your usage of 50%, 75%, 90%, and 100% of that subscription amount. You will be alerted each time you approach these budget limits through email.

    You can also keep track of the amount you have consumed from your subscription plan at any time from the Billing settings in your Catalyst console.


    Billing Calculations in the Subscription Model

Each subscription plan comes with a set of resources that are worth that plan’s amount overall.
