All-Inclusive, Perpetual Licensing
With m-Power's licensing, you buy the software once and you own it forever. Say goodbye to per-seat fees, feature tiers, and data thresholds. Every license includes unlimited users, unlimited applications, and a support team staffed by consultants, so the bill doesn't climb as you grow.
I don't know how you could say no once you look at the product, work with the product, and look at the pricing of the product. It's one of the most economical decisions that we have made.

Unlimited users and applications on every license
m-Power's licensing is unlike most structures you'll find in low-code. It's designed to eliminate the fees that grow with your success. Every licensing option includes:
No seat or user fees
Add as many developers and users as you want. The bill never moves. m-Power is built to scale with you, not against you.
Unlimited applications
Create and deploy as many applications as the business needs. You'll never hit an app limit or a feature tier.
Cloud or on-premise
Deploy on-premise or in the cloud, wherever your data lives. No deployment restrictions.
The team behind you
Support staffed by consultants who build with m-Power every day, plus a services team that picks up where support leaves off.
What factors impact m-Power licensing?
m-Power installs in your environment and runs over your databases, so licensing isn't a per-seat rate card. It depends on how you'll set the platform up.
If you prefer to pay monthly, we have plans that start at $1,500. Most customers choose the perpetual option instead and own the software outright.
Before we can answer licensing questions directly, we need to understand what you're looking to build and where it will run. Once we do, we can give you an exact number.

Two ways to license m-Power
Both paths include the full platform with unlimited users and applications. The difference is how you pay and what you own.
Perpetual vs. Subscription
Pay once, own the software forever. The option most of our customers choose.
- One-time license fee, no recurring platform cost
- Unlimited users, applications, and data
- Optional annual maintenance
- You keep the software and every app you built, no matter what
Prefer an operating expense? License m-Power monthly or yearly instead.
- Monthly or yearly billing
- The same platform, no feature cuts
- Unlimited users, applications, and data
- Switch paths later if your needs change

Talk to us about licensingAsk any vendor: "What happens the day we stop paying you?"
It's the fastest way to find out what you actually own. On most platforms, the licenses deactivate and the apps your team built stop running.
Our answer: You keep everything. The software, the code, and every application, because m-Power generates standard Java that runs on its own. That's what owning it means.
When you rent
- Renewal season comes every year, and the vendor sets the terms.
- The price can go up, and your only alternative is losing your apps.
- You're tied to the vendor for as long as you need your software to work.
When you own
- There's no renewal date hanging over your budget.
- Your apps keep running whether or not you ever pay us again.
- You're free to leave, so we have to keep earning your business.
