MailStore primarily uses a perpetual licensing model with optional subscription for updates and support. Here are the key aspects of their licensing:

  • Perpetual License: You purchase the software license upfront, and you own that version of the software indefinitely.
  • User-Based Licensing: Licensing is typically based on the number of licensed users. A licensed user is generally defined as a user whose mailbox is being archived.
  • Server License: A base server license is required for each installation of the MailStore Server software.
  • Optional Subscription for Updates & Support: While the software license is perpetual, access to software updates and technical support requires an active subscription. This is typically purchased for a specific period (e.g., 1, 3, or 5 years).
  • MailStore Service Provider Edition (SPE): For managed service providers (MSPs) or hosting providers, MailStore offers a Service Provider Edition with different licensing models suitable for their multi-tenant environments. 
  • Volume Discounts: MailStore offers volume discounts for larger deployments, making it more cost-effective for organisations with a significant number of users.
  • Free Trial: MailStore offers a free trial version of the software, allowing organisations to test its functionality before purchasing.
