1.5 - Licensing Overview
Licensing Overview
This short section explains the ways that the BlinkMobile Platform services discussed in this lesson are offered to the market. We’re explaining this here because it’s helpful to know what you get for your money. Actual prices may be obtained from BlinkMobile Partners and they are related to the size of the organisation buying the licence.
The objective of the pricing models has been to support the rollout of many Soldier Apps within an organisation so there is no infrastructure or operational cost barrier to building more apps. To do that BlinkMobile offers just two main levels of access to the BlinkMobile Platform, both of which are “all-you-can-eat” service agreements.
All Platform services described in this Lesson are provided for a single price under both service levels, with the exception of Jitterbit and Hosted Database Services.
BlinkMobile do not unbundle individual micro-services.
