I have read through 11 pps on this current thread and had planned rolling a unraid server regardless of this change with new pricing tiers. I am ok with it but have 2 questions.
1. I have purchased a pro key: The server has not been built at this time. The key will be under current terms when i generate the license key for the USB when "i" am ready to build. Correct? I tend to procrastinate these projects and need have this confirmation.
2. I also want to buy a 2nd key to test a smaller server, likely basic, but possibly plus as well. Is limetech purposely not answering the question of cost to upgrade as a "grandfathered user" from basic to plus or plus to pro because they do not know if it will be the same cost as it is now? ie. will i be abled to upgrade from basic to plus (6 dev to 12 dev) for same cost as it is now, or is that to going to increase/decrease based on new the two new 2 tiers being introduced.
I simply want to obviously keep the unlimited upgrades, and the same price in this scenario. It seemed Tom and the team were very passionate about being direct and fair with the inevitable pricing structure changes. The question is simple though, and it seems a lot have asked for the answer from my review of 11 pages in this thread.
Can a "grandfathered user" expect to pay the same upgrade cost to move from Basic to Plus , Or Plus to Pro under their license?
The video attached from the other day at The Uncast Show really came across genuine, and if this is what allows the company to remain viable in the long term, than this is a positive path. This is coming from a synology DSM user of over a decade. Tom and his daughter truly care, it shows in this interview how much the users mean to them, at least from an outsider looking in.
